Synopsis
This is the definitive biography of pioneering British automobile and aircraft engineer, Sir Harry Ricardo (1885-1974). In it, author John Reynolds tells the background story of several key engineering firsts including the design of innovative engines for tanks, airships, motorcycles and cars. It offers new insight into the world of pioneering engineers during the first part of the 20th century, using company and family sources to provide a portrait of one of the unsung heroes of motoring history., This illustrated biography reveals how Sir Harry Ricardo found his place, along with Sir Henry Royce and Frederick Lanchester, in the ranks of the British engineers and designers whose work had a profound international influence on the development of the internal-combustion engine. His achievements as an engineer, scientist and inventor were repeatedly honoured throughout the automobile and aircraft industries during his lifetime.
