| Abstract |
Biography of the Wright brothers from 1900 on, with emphasis on their activities and personal associations in North Carolina, based on original as well as secondary sources. The author argues that the unique geography, wind conditions, and people of North Carolina, enabled the Wright brothers to succeed there where they probably would not have anywhere else. Includes original photographs and an index. |
