Hardcover. Condition: NEW - COLLECTIBLE. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Edition, First Printing. BRAND NEW & COLLECTIBLE. First Edition, First Printing. Aviation history. Swedish scientist, philosopher, theologian, revelator, and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg (1688 - 1772), born Manuel Swedberg, is best known for his book on the afterlife, Heaven and Hell (1758). Swedenborg was also an inventor. This volume is a study of one of his early designs, circa 1714 --- "a machine to fly in the air" -- anticipating the modern airplane by more than 150 years. With its oval, fixed "sail," Swedenborg's contribution soars high. Henry Soderberg encountered this remarkable invention while research for a book on the history of flight. In this account Soderberg offers an overview on the dream of flight through the centuries and places Swedenborg at a pivotal point in aviation history.…

During WWII he worked in Switzerland with Prisoners of War. He visited camps in Germany, Austria, and Poland. The author joined the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration in 1947. Letter related to author laid in. He later worked for Scandinavian Airlines System and became chief of Aeropolitical and Foreign affairs. In retirement he became noted as a historian of flight. This book, published in celebration of the 300th anniversary of the birth of Emanuel Swedenborg, was based on several years of research in libraries, archives, and aviation institutions and represents the first comprehensive study of this remarkable design. Emanuel Swedenborg (born Emanuel Swedberg; 29 January 1688 - 29 March 1772) was a Swedish Lutheran theologian, scientist, philosopher, revelator and mystic who inspired Swedenborgianism. He is best known for his book Heaven and Hell (1758). Swedenborg was also an inventor and scientist. Swedenborg's Flying Machine was first sketched by the Swedish scientist Emanuel Swedenborg in 1714, when he was 26 years old. It was later published in his periodical, Daedalus Hyperboreus, in 1716. The image shows the flying machine from above looking down. It consists of one large wing. In the middle of it is a hole with a basket, where the pilot stands. There are two "paddles" on the wings. These are used by the pilot like oars in a boat, except in this case they only move up and down. Underneath the ship is the landing gear; it consists of four long poles, which, except for the ends of two, can not be seen since they are below the ship. In between them is a weight, which is used to keep the ship balanced. The wing is a light frame covered with strong canvas. The large wing would work as a glider, and by working the paddles up and down the pilot would keep the plane in the air, Swedenborg initially hoped. Otto Nielsen (Cover Art) (illustrator).…
