OverviewFor over 200 years Waltham Abbey was one of the UK's premier sites for the development of rocket motors, gun propellants and explosives. From Congreve's ""rockets red glare"" to launching satellites into orbit, Waltham Abbey did them all. Protected by the Official Secrets Act much of its work still remains classified, but what was it like to work there, to be one of Britain's boffins? This book gives accounts from some of the scientists and engineers who worked there during the White Heat of Technology and the Cold War era.
