yankee ingenuity in the war
This 1920 book by Frank Parker Stockbridge is a fascinating pictorial account of the scientific, industrial, and technical efforts to mobilize and equip the nation for World War I. The 170 old pictures are fascinating and include: a horse in a gas mask, women shipyard workers learning electro welding, the pouring of a "concrete" ship, pilots sitting in open air double wing planes using the new wireless telephony, the Browning aircraft machine rifle, and much more. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
