'An engineering marvel . . . a flying machine that seems to defy logic. . . Michael Pryce reveals how, while rival jump jet designers pinned their hopes on data and analysis, and failed, the brilliance of the Harrier was born of human ingenuity, creativity and intuition. A superb book' - RORY SUTHERLAND, author of Alchemy
'A book about aerospace engineering that reads like a thriller' - JOE COLES, HUSH-KIT
Victory in the Falklands War made the Harrier's name as a world-beating British icon, as capable of giving the enemy a bloody nose as it was of thrilling the crowds at airshows with its thunderous aerial ballet. Its failure seemed inconceivable.
But that's not the real story of the Harrier.
