Few great inventors have left behind them so complete and enthralling a record of their work and thoughts than did Orville and Wilbur Wright—the successful but unassuming bicycle mechanics turned aviation engineers of Dayton, Ohio. What started out as a scientific improbability turned into determined possibility, as the two kept careful record of their trials and errors with their invention atop "Kill Devil Hill."
In Wind and Sand: The Story of the Wright Brothers at Kitty Hawk, Lynanne Wescott and Paula Degen present written and photographic extracts from the Wrights’ diaries and letters during 1900-1903—a three-year span concluding with the world’s first powered flight. These writings and photographs document the birth of aviation and tell the true story of two brothers who refused to give up on their "flying machine."
