An adult space book this week. I picked up a copy of By Rocketship Into the Universe / From Fire Wagon to Space Ship a few weeks ago. This is an early book about spaceflight and rockets written in Germany by Otto Willi Gail. I do not read German but wanted to share some of the wonderful illustrations within. At the end of July I will post his children's book derived from these ideas By Rocket to The Moon (1931 English translation)
Mit Raketenkraft ins Wentanall / Vom Feuerwagen Zum Raumschiff. (By Rocketship Into the Universe / From Fire Wagon to Space Ship.) Otto Willi Gail. Stuttgard, 106 p. 1928.
