| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. From the Wright Brothers' famous first flights in the early 1900s to the Space Shuttle Discovery's final voyage in 2011, the obsession with aviation remains the same for each American generation. This book guides aviation buffs through the best exhibits in U.S. museums and gives some historical perspective to the displays. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
