| Abstract |
Detailed account of the Wright brothers' activities at Kitty Hawk and of the people they associated with there, many of whom became lifelong friends, and of what became of those people. The author argues that if the Wright brothers had first chosen any place other than Kitty Hawk, the airplane might well have been invented by someone else many years later in another country. Includes original photographs, excerpts from correspondence and newspaper articles of the time, and an extensive index. |
