| Abstract |
Detailed biography of the Wright brothers. In the preface to the 1987 edition, reprinted here, the author states that his purpose is to provide a more complete account of the attempts of others to solve the problem of flight at the same time as the Wright brothers, and to provide a more complete account of the Wright brothers after 1909, than earlier biographies. Includes photographs, quotes from numerous original sources as well as citations of numerous secondary sources, and an extensive index. |
