Glenn Hammond Curtiss and the Race to Invent the Airplane.
Shulman. This book tells the extraordinary story of Glenn Curtiss - a tale of the race to design, refine, and manufacture a manned aircraft that took place in the air, on the ground, on the water, and in the courtrooms of America. Who would be the first to make a workable airplane, and almost as critical, who would control the right to use or sell this revolutionary technology? Witness the battles and intrigue of technological change with players such as the Wright brothers, Henry Ford, and Alexander Graham Bell, while learning about Glenn Hammond Curtiss, perhaps the greatest aviator and aeronautical inventor of all time. 256 pages, 6"x 9", softcover.
