Harry P. Williams and James R. Wedell formed one of the most productive alliances in aviation during the 1930s. Their company, the Wedell-Williams Air Service Corporation, left a remarkable legacy to the world of air racing and the state of Louisiana, Jimmie Wedell possessed a keen sense of aerodynamics. His aircraft designs set a precedent by demonstrating that bigger engines, with more power, were not always the right combination to place first. The Wedell-Williams story is about individual genius, business savvy, and dedicated teamwork. It is a history of air racing at its best! This is a well-documented segment of aviation history that records one more important contribution made by its pioneers, including that of Roscoe Turner. 124 pages, softbound, 170 photos, 19 detailed drawings shrink wrapped, 8.5™ x 11™.
