Book Description
How It Flies; or, The Conquest of the Air is a book by Richard Ferris where is described the history of man's conquest for achieving flight. Excerpt: "If we were asked to explain the word "flying" to some foreigner who did not know what it meant, we should probably give as an illustration the bird. This would be because the bird is so closely associated in our thoughts with flying that we can hardly think of the one without the other. It is natural, therefore, that since men first had the desire to fly they should study the form and motions of the birds in the air, and try to copy them. Our ancestors built immense flopping wings, into the frames of which they fastened themselves, and with great muscular exertion of arms and legs strove to attain the results that the bird gets by apparently similar motions."

Book Description
Excerpt from The Conquest of the Air: Or the Advent of Aerial Navigation The final conquest of the air by man finds no popular and, at the same time, scientific account, in English, of its accomplishment. While the rapid progress which is daily being made in aerial navigation necessarily renders any permanent record of the latest achievements impossible, yet the epoch when mechanical flight was demonstrated to the world seems opportune to chronicle the past and present status of the art and to forecast its future. The physical conditions which prevail in the ocean of air being even more important to the aeronaut than the conditions on bodies of water are to the sailor, a knowledge of the former is of vital interest Accordingly, it appeared appropriate that, at the outset, there should be given a description of the ocean above our heads, including the surveys and soundings which have been executed by the author during the past twenty years at his own observatory.
