Orville Wright: The Flyer details the passion of Orville Wright and his brother Wilbur as they set out to solve the problem of flight. From experiments in their Dayton, Ohio bicycle shop to test flights over the beaches of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, the amateur aviation enthusiasts risked their lives and worked tirelessly to solve the problems that had stumped the world's best scientists. They recognized that success would only come with careful observation, perseverance and ingenuity. Together, the Wright brothers designed and constructed a power-driven airplane and, in doing so, achieved the world's first controlled, sustained flight. The sky was now open and the era of aviation began. This book is part of the Heroes of History series of biographies that are told in an engaging narrative format.
