It Looked Good on Paper: Bizarre Inventions, Design Disasters, and Engineering Follies
by Bill Fawcett

I like books like this - a quick read; small, almost anecdotal episodes; fascinating looks into history. This book sorely could have used illustrations, though in this Internet age, I was able to look up each item it discussed quickly. This editor has several other similar books, and I might check them out. The editor himself wrote several chapters, though they were always the shortest ones. I think the editor could have spent a little more time on his own entries.
