Hardback

Item not Available

Description

This wonderful new survey follows the evolution of the sports helmet from early military and aviation uses, through early motorcycle and auto racing, and to modern helmets used in a wide variety of sports today.

The science of helmet design and manufacture is covered before moving into the art of the helmet.

Helmets for six major sports are extensively covered: auto and motorcycle racing, bicycling, equestrian activities, skiing, football, and ice hockey.

Some lesser known sports and their helmets are also included to give a fascinating and complete panorama of the field.

The design innovations, both for safety and appearance, the colors, and the fascinating history will engage the reader, while nearly 600 color images will please even the most particular sports fan.

For designers, players, scientists, and historians this book is a true delight.
