Descriere magazin:
Description James Tobin, award-winning author of Ernie Pyle\'s War and The Man He Became , has penned the definitive account of the inspiring and impassioned race between the Wright brothers and their primary rival Samuel Langley across ten years and two continents to conquer the air. For years, Wilbur Wright and his younger brother, Orville, experimented in obscurity, supported only by their exceptional family. Meanwhile, the world watched as Samuel Langley, armed with a contract from the US War Department and all the resources of the Smithsonian Institution, sought to create the first manned flying machine. But while Langley saw flight as a problem of power, the Wrights saw a problem of balance. Thus their machines took two very different paths--Langley\'s toward oblivion, the Wrights\' toward the heavens--though not before facing countless other obstacles. With a historian\'s accuracy and a novelist\'s eye, Tobin has captured an extraordinary moment in history. To Conquer the Air is itself a heroic achievement. About the Author Ron Powers Co-author of "Flags of Our Fathers " What The Metaphysical Club was to the development of philosophic thought in America, this beautiful book is to the development of man in flight. Far more than a mere account of the Wright brothers\' triumph, "To Conquer the Air" is a yeasty, richly drawn evocation of an era and of the strange, visionary, obsessed, and difficult men who battled one another to claim it in their name.
