Avoid Being on the First Flying Machine!

By Ian Graham

Book Overview

Meet the Wright Brothers.

Orville and Wilbur Wright are only bicycle mechanics in Dayton, Ohio, but they have a dream. They plan to fly-not in a balloon or a glider, but in an airplane made of wood and cloth, powered by its own engine. Most people don't believe this is possible; do you?
