Books, Manuscripts
On 17 December 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright made history on the hills of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. With four test runs of their Wright Flyer, they became the very first pilots of a powered aircraft. Although none of their flights lasted longer than a minute, they proved that humankind was no longer bound to Earth forever. What led up to this pivotal moment in aviation history? And what was the enduring legacy of those fledgling flights? Find out in this illustrated book.
