  • Stine was the king of model rocketry!!!

    I owned the 5th edition as a teenager (40+ years ago), and this edition matches the old edition with even more info. Great book from an awesome writer/author. Stine was considered the king of model rocketry, and founded the NAR, along with other great contributions to the rocket science world. A must have for any rocketry enthusiast!!

  • It's a great book for a beginner.

    This book is a great book for beginners in model rocketry and for us older kids who find themselves getting back into it when we are almost ready to retire. It's an easy read. Alot of good information. The book is a little dated but the information is still relevant. I would definitely recommend it for someone who wants to get into the hobby of model rockets.

  • Classic book on model rockets.

    The book arrived quickly and was in great condition. It is the classic text on model rockets and has just about everything you need to know. This is an older edition but it virtually the same as the more expensive 7th edition.

  • Rocket science for the backyard!

    This book is a comprehensive tour of "everything you need to know" about model rockets, written in an engaging and lighthearted style by two authoritative pioneers in the field. It is simple enough to appeal to beginners yet, for the nerd herd, includes all the hardcore equations underlying the fun stuff. There is a later edition, but this one costs less and is more than "good enough." Highly recommended!

  • Great Model rocket book but a little outdated

    I read the older version of this book as a kid and wanted a copy for my grandson. For warning this is more of a reference than a actual book, although I read it like a book. Good stuff if your in to rockets.
