    WHY THIS BOOK?

    Everybody has a dream. But only very few are able to turn the dream into actions and achieve as great success as the size of their dreams. The Wright Brothers also had a big dream: to fly and be able to control the flight like birds in the sky. This dream had been shared among mankind for thousands of years until the Wright Brothers from Ohio invented the world’s first practical fixed wing aircraft out of their obsession and curiosity. It was the true beginning of a long era of technology development in aviation.

    To say that the Wright Brothers were as great as Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg in this century would be an understatement. In the era where there was no internet and very limited resources to invent new things, the Wright Brothers took the audacious challenge to make an object with a wing fly like a bird. We can travel to the other side of the world within a day thanks to the works by the Wright Brothers. Otherwise, we would need to get a ride in the Titanic to cross the ocean to other continents.

    This unique biography illustrates how the Wright Brothers thrived to make the dream of mankind come true. This is not to hail him as the best man who has ever worked on earth, but to prove his authenticity as a genius and as a man of vision. This book will tell you that the Wright Brothers were just like us, normal human being, but with a much greater passion and love for what they were trying to achieve.

    This book is also full of historical pictures which will make you feel like you were really observing the Wright Brothers behind the scene. I bet you will love and enjoy this book. If not, you can just return the book to Amazon to get a full refund and leave me some valuable comments at twiroon@gmail.com.

    Even if you are a fan of David McCullough, you will find this book a great buy with key aspects of his books already covered. Download now and enjoy!!!
