Book Review of The Wright Brothers

The Wright Brothers
PabloRafael avatar reviewed on + 19 more book reviews


The writing is excellent. I expect no less from David McCullough. The first part of the book is very interesting. The latter part of the book is less so. The lives of the Wright brothers are just not that interesting once they have developed the airplane. The endless demonstrations, marketing and ceremonies later in the book makes for rather dull reading.
