Description

A virtually mint copy, without dust jacket, as issued. There is a former-owner-name inkstamp and a hint of foxing to the front endpaper, else fine.
From a set of promotional books by Wesley W. Stout issued by Chrysler during WW II, a nice piece of corporate propaganda outlining the Chrysler corporation’s contribution to the production of the H-bomb or, as president K.T. Keller phrased it, “a simple narrative of what was done to give man his first control over the energy locked in the atom.”
