Soft cover. Condition: VG. 67pp extract, illustrated with 14 figure drawings, and several tables, salvaged from a damaged copy of The Smithsonian Annual Report, 1892.

When once this idea has invaded the brain, it possesses it exclusively. It is then a haunting thought, a walking nightmare, impossible to cast off. If now we consider the pitying contempt with which such a line of research is appreciated, we may somewhat conceive the unhappy lot of the poor investigator whose soul is thus possessed. Many of these searchers, either through pride or timidity, have withdrawn themselves from human intercourse, and have found themselves paralyzed by attempting to carry on their experiments in secret.

Extracted and translated from the author's seminal title, L'Empire de l'Air, published in France, 1881, as per the editor. Sections include Thoughts on Aviation, Ornithology: Surveyed in Flight, Observations of Birds, and Man - Flight Theoretically Considered. Housed in protective mylar report cover. Very scarce.…
