Airborne: A Photobiography of Wilbur and Orville Wright [SCM]

by Mary Collins Author

Like many other books, this one discusses the close-knit Wright family, the brothers' bicycle shop, the experiments in flight, and the triumph at Kitty Hawk. But Collins offers unusually lively portrayals of Orville and Wilbur, differentiating their personalities throughout the book and making it possible for readers to think of them as individuals before, during, and after their famous flights (from Booklist). Excellent photographs.
