Model Rocket Design and Construction book

[mikecnorthwest]

I'm on the fence about buying Tim Van Milligan's book, Model Rocket Design and Construction. The retail price plus shipping is pretty steep and I can't find an inexpensive used copy. For those that have the book is it worth the expense?

I consider it a good book for the price. Good coverage of a lot of topics and a bit more contemporary than some of the other offerings. I do have it. At least you won't need international shipping costs.

I consider the book a 100% essential tool in the design and construction of model rockets if you want to build from scratch. If all you ever do is kits, then not too essential, but still illuminating.

+1 on the book. I learned a lot from my dog-eared, second hand copy.
