Walsh, John Evangelist, - One Day at Kitty Hawk: the untold story of the Wright Brothers and the airplane.

NY, Crowell, (1975). 1st ptg. VG in VG DJ. DJ edge wear, one edge tear. Sifting original source materials, Walsh creates a step-by-step account of the plane's invention. It reveals Wilbur as the true aeronautical genius & Orville as very much his junior assistant. Because Wilbur died first, Walsh contends Orville controlled the Wright archives & engineered the history to show an equal partnership. Wilbur worked alone initially & planned & supervised the long series of highly dangerous glider experiments that prefaced the pioneer flight at Kitty Hawk on December 17, 1903.
