| Publisher Description: Were the Wright Brothers really the first to fly? Wright or Wrong? From Dream to War, Aviation and the Wright Brothers Revisited, follows the meandering path of the ancient dream to fly. From the Cuneiform clay tablets of the Epic of Gilgamesh, to the rubble of the Twin Towers of 9/11, discover dozens of tasty, entertaining, and often unknown characters and their daring stories. Along our sleuthing journey to the sources of aviation, uncover the narrow gap between the pursuit of dreams, the pettiness of man, and the fragility of our freedoms. |
