[From Introduction] Most historians would agree that the Wright brothers would be on a list of the 100 greatest men who ever lived. They and their invention of the aeroplane have touched the lives of every living person on this earth. It is very surprising to most people that these two men came out of a very ordinary neighborhood, had an ordinary education, and lived in a home of modest means on the west side of Dayton, Ohio. The Wright brothers had three businesses in their life time — printing, bicycle, and the aeroplane business....This book will help you to understand more about these two incredible men, because we have covered in detail many subjects never before printed in a book about them, such as, The homes of the Wright family, Schools the brothers attended, The newspapers they printed, Orville's bicycle racing, The Wright brothers' bicycle business, Photos of the Wright neighborhood and the six bicycle shop locations, The Wright brothers' scientific kite Hying field, New views of Orville's Laboratory, Orville's toys, The Boyd building, owned by Wilbur and Orville Wright. The graves of the family and of twin brother and sister of the Wright family. We take you through the glory of their success in flight, and some of the honors they received. Much history is here for your enjoyment in "The Wright Brothers, From Bicycle To Biplane." We hope you enjoy reading this book as much as we enjoyed writing it.
