Hardcover. 96, xvi p. Includes illustrations. Some illustrations in color. From an on-line posting: "This work tells the fascinating story of how two remarkable brothers realized mankind's age-old dream of flight. It chronicles, step-by-step, how patience, the scientific method, inspired genius, and incredible concentration changed the world forever. The book covers the unique role the entire Wright family played in the development of these two men, contributing greatly to their eventual success and notoriety. The principles they discovered a century ago still apply to every aircraft built today.
