As storm clouds gather across the globe, American Military Intelligence meets with a certain Lamont Cranston, determined to beat a host of spies and assassins to the greatest prize of all… but what that might be, only the Shadow knows.

ROBOTS, FLYING TANKS & OTHER MACHINES OF WAR

Available on November 6th, Popular Mechanics release, The Amazing Weapons That Never Were hits stores. Many of these would be right at home in a pulp novel.

Between 1910 and 1970, scientists and military experts made hundreds of predictions in Popular Mechanics about the future of warfare. Some of those prophecies were downright nuts, while others veered eerily close to reality. This collection of vintage articles, with their stunning original art, will spark the imagination of every military buff, retrophile, and futurist. And the jacket unfolds into an amazing 24” x 19” poster of fantastic machines, blasters, and flying tanks. Astrophysics professor, science-fiction author, and NASA advisor Gregory Benford provides an introduction to every chapter.

The Amazing Weapons That Never Were, a 200 page hardcover retails for $16.47 and can be purchased at Amazon.
