Description

Meticulously curated and edited by Esther C. Goddard and G. Edward Pendray, The Papers of Robert H. Goddard is a 1700-page 3 volume set published in 1970. The set presents a careful and exhaustive chronological presentation of Robert Goddard’s life through diary snippets, notebook entries, correspondence, publications, speeches, patent outlines, school papers, press, reports and more.

This section is a brief Autobiographical Statement written by Robert Goddard in 1921. It was presumed to have been written for the Inventors Bulletin, but it is now known whether the statement was ever published.

Disclaimer: The images in these scans have been rendered somewhat distorted after the fact. We apologize for this error. Thankfully, most of the photographs used in these papers are part of the The Goddard Rocket Researches: A Photographic Record and can be seen individually in high-quality scans.
