Summary |
"On September 29th, 1909, Wilbur Wright performed his first public flight for a crowd of disbelievers in the New York Harbor, home to the Statue of Liberty. With courage and caution, he put his airplane to the test and flew around the iconic landmark while the crowd observed, breathless. Burleigh provides a minute-to-minute account of Wright's voyage over New York City."-- adapted from jacket. |
