Wright Aero's Last Liquid-Cooled Piston Engine
McCutcheon. In the 1930s, when gas turbines were practically unknown, engine designers worldwide struggled to create a new and more powerful generation of aircraft engines. It was hoped these engines would push aircraft to speeds of more than 500 miles per hour. One such engine, the Tornado, was a remarkable 42-cylinder liquid-cooled radial conceived by the Wright Aeronautical Corporation. This book tells the incredible story of the people, politics and technology behind the Tornado, of the aircraft it was meant to power, and of the volunteers who preserved it for future generations. 222 pages, 158 B&W and color photographs, line drawings, 8¼"x 10¾", softcover.

Vee's for Victory! : The Story of the Allison V-1710 Aircraft Engine 1929-1948 (Schiffer  Military History) 
by Daniel D. Whitney 

Book Description 
Over 60 percent of U.S. Army fighters during World War II were powered by the Allison V-1710 engine. It was a strong and reliable power plant that powered the pre-war generation of 400 mph Army pursuits, and the majority of Army combat fighters on through  World War II. Even so, the V-1710 was controversial and often maligned, considered by some to have been a "second rate" engine.  Author Whitney's objective was to find, and tell, the true story of the 70,000 V-1710's and the people who built them. A critique of  Vee's For Victory! was provided by the Editor of Wings Magazine, August 1997, who wrote: "Presenting the 1929-1948 story of Allison's V-1710 engine in a revealing investigative style that uncovers a great deal of new material, this well illustrated volume represents  something seldom seen these days Ð pure, original research. Combined with lucid writing and penetrating analysis, Vee's for Victory!  recounts Allison's up and down career from Curtiss XP-37, through the XP-58, and GM XP-75 Eagle. In between are all the major  fighters which utilized the Allison, including the P-38, P-39, the lightweight fighters XP-46A and XP-47, as well as the early P-51  Mustangs. Author Dan Whitney carefully and seamlessly grafts the histories of these aircraft to their engines and supercharger  components, relying on new information from aero engineers and test pilots to present what is sure to become a milestone in the recording of aviation history.", over 400 b/w and color photographs, line drawings, charts, 8 1/2" x 11", appendices, fully annotated
