Item description from seller

First Edition per same date on Title Page and Copyright page. No other printings noted. Softcover in very good condition with glossy pictorial wraps showing only ghost of shelf wear. Interior text block clean & tight; no writing, no markings noted. Black & white photographs throughout. * From a caption under photos of Orville and Wilbur Wright, "Orville and Wilbur Wright, Dayton bicycle makers, first became intrigued with the possibility of powered flight in 1899. By 1900 they were searching for an appropriate place to conduct tests of 'scientific kite flying.' The Outer Banks of North Carolina proved to be a hospitable site." This is their story.
