Many remarkable aircraft came and went in quick succession with some missions and types disappearing altogether. Indeed, there were scores of little known or minimally documented aircraft projects which significantly advanced technology of aeronautics, propulsion, aircraft systems, avionics and weapons, whilst never achieving full-rate production and deployment. Focusing almost exclusively on official programs and aircraft that actually entered development, American Aircraft Development of WWII, Special Types 1939-1945 opens with the 'state of the art' designs at the beginning of the war, to the advances during the conflict itself. These so-called 'special types' are far less widely known than fighter and bomber designs, but no less important, and include armed photo reconnaissance aircraft, catapult launched seaplanes, autogyros, tactical haulers and armed drones. Other designs covered include 'one-off' experimental aircraft, rocket boost, floats and skis added to landplanes, fighters with second seats added for training, engine testbeds, 'oddball' experiments and more besides. Illustrated through-out with 3-view drawings and rare photographs, many of little-known and unusual aircraft and missiles, American Aircraft Development of WWII, Special Types 1939-1945 tells the stories of engineering teams and test pilots struggling against short schedules and tight resources to develop new aircraft that pushed the bounds of technology. This book is a fitting testament to the epic and sometimes life-threatening accomplishments which were every bit as vital to the war effort as actual combat operations themselves.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49731375235345,"sku":"NGR9780859791885","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50734192623889,"sku":"GOR008801181","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52105283895569,"sku":"CIN0859791882G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0859791882.jpg?v=1751426768"},{"product_id":"cultural-geography-environments-landscapes-identities-inequalities-third-edition-book-william-norton-9780195429541","title":"Cultural Geography: Environments, Landscapes, Identities, Inequalities, third edition","description":"Cultural Geography: Environments, Landscapes, Identities, Inequalities explores the relationship between people and the places they live in by analyzing cultural identities and cultural landscapes on both local and global scales. The new edition of Cultural Geography introduces co-author Margaret Walton-Roberts, whose familiarity with contemporary practices in the discipline ensures a good balance between traditional and modern approaches to cultural geography. Ultimately, these approaches demonstrate cultural geography's relation to other areas of geographic interest and the impact it has on them, particularly social, economic, political, environmental, and physical geography. The text has been revised and updated, with enhanced discussion of identity and power, socio-spatial relationships, hybridity and nature, feminism, and Marxism, making it more appropriate for today's student. Boxed features, questions for critical thought, and suggested further readings enhance student engagement and study.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50345523216657,"sku":"CIN0195429540VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52102745358609,"sku":"CIN0195429540G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52763118436625,"sku":"NIN9780195429541","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0195429540.jpg?v=1776939661"},{"product_id":"human-geography-book-william-norton-9780199019557","title":"Human Geography","description":"With a well-balanced mix of international and Canadian examples, the ninth edition of this bestselling text traces the evolution of the discipline across the globe, examining the ways in which human behaviour transforms the earth's surface in response to changing social, cultural, political, and environmental needs.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50701085016337,"sku":"CIN019901955XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50778803306769,"sku":"CIN019901955XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":51332983259409,"sku":"CIN019901955XA","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/019901955X.jpg?v=1772272303"},{"product_id":"translation-in-english-daily-used-book-william-norton-9781165960125","title":"A Translation, In English Daily Used","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51021110051089,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51021110247697,"sku":"NIN9781165960125","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1165960125.jpg?v=1750952543"},{"product_id":"spot-the-difference-book-william-norton-9781539378723","title":"Spot the difference","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51035311472913,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51035314159889,"sku":"NIN9781539378723","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1539378721.jpg?v=1751341471"},{"product_id":"personal-finance-book-william-norton-9781540345059","title":"Personal Finance","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51038611341585,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51038614225169,"sku":"NIN9781540345059","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/154034505X.jpg?v=1751118719"},{"product_id":"honduras-book-william-norton-9781022140417","title":"Honduras","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51076675043601,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51076677697809,"sku":"NIN9781022140417","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1022140418.jpg?v=1750751434"},{"product_id":"honduras-book-william-norton-9781020896996","title":"Honduras","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51196986687761,"sku":"NIN9781020896996","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/102089699X.jpg?v=1751267815"},{"product_id":"translation-in-english-daily-used-of-the-peshito-syriac-text-and-of-the-recevied-book-william-norton-9781015913998","title":"A Translation, in English Daily Used, of the Peshito-Syriac Text.and of the Recevied Greek Text","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

Focusing on evolution, behavior, symbolism, and ecology, Norton offers a critique of the literature of cultural and social geography and articulates a framework of central issues that connect a wide range of theoretical approaches.    In the first four chapters, Norton gives detailed consideration to both traditional and contemporary literature and methodologies and to the links between cultural geography and other social science concepts and analytical methods. The remaining chapters are concerned with the causes and consequences of cultural landscape evolution and the variables affecting it, including language, religion, politics, society, economy, and the physical environment. In addressing these areas of cultural geography, Norton promotes an approach that integrates the contributions of geography with those of anthropology, sociology, psychology, and history. His analysis provides a useful synthesis of the conceptual and empirical content of cultural geography and suggests promising new directions for research in the field. Norton's work will prove a valuable classroom and library resource for students and scholars in cultural and social geography and related areas of sociology and anthropology.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52474917355793,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52474918535441,"sku":"NLS9780313264948","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780313264948.jpg?v=1759841862"},{"product_id":"translation-in-english-daily-used-of-the-peshito-syriac-text-book-william-norton-9783337243814","title":"A Translation, in English daily Used, of the Peshito-Syriac Text","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52597996060945,"sku":"NLS9783337243814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52761218646289,"sku":"NIN9783337243814","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783337243814.jpg?v=1761075273"},{"product_id":"human-geography-book-william-norton-9780195448559","title":"Human Geography","description":"Human Geography explores how human behaviour affects the earth's surface, initiating a process of discovery that engages with subjects such as globalization, politics, biology, economics, philosophy, cultural studies, sociology, and global warming.
