Download or read book The Bishop s Boys A Life of Wilbur and Orville Wright written by Tom D. Crouch and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2003-04-17 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reissue of this definitive biography heralds the one-hundredth anniversary of the Wright brothers' first flight. Brilliant, self-trained engineers, the Wright brothers had a unique blend of native talent, character, and family experience that perfectly suited them to the task of invention but left them ill-prepared to face a world of skeptics, rivals, and officials. Using a treasure trove of Wright family correspondence and diaries, Tom Crouch skillfully weaves the story of the airplane's invention into the drama of a unique and unforgettable family. He shows us exactly how and why these two obscure bachelors from Dayton, Ohio, were able to succeed where so many better-trained, better-financed rivals had failed.

Download or read book The Duck Hunter written by Ed Beckley and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1939, John Steinbeck began his research for his novel the Grapes of Wrath at a farm labor camp outside Gridley, California. Fast forward to 1952. A beautiful young girl from this camp is found brutally murdered in a canal near Gridley. She is the daughter of the Coffey family who work the crops during the harvest season. They are unable to afford a decent burial for their daughter. The community shows little emotion or outrage over the death of Clara Coffey, except to place probable blame for her death on an African American man who had recently moved to the area with his family. Only a young Deputy Sheriff named Marlin Webster takes her murder seriously enough to pursue the few clues available as to her killer. Clara becomes almost an obsession with Webster that results in conflict with his love interest, Roxanne Travers, Sheriff Sam Cross and others who stand in his way to finding her murderer and bringing some dignity to her life. The story focuses on Webster’s investigation and the people and events he encounters, but also on a people and community where long held beliefs and prejudices that come into conflict with changing times die hard.

Download or read book Sunbird written by Wilbur Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An action-packed archaeological adventure from global bestseller Wilbur Smith “You should know of the legend. At a time when the rocks were soft and the air was misty, there was an abomination and an evil in this place which was put down by our ancestors. They placed a death curse upon these hills and commanded that this evil be cleaned from the earth and from the minds of men, forever.” A lost civilisation. A curse reborn. Dr Ben Kazin has only a blurred photograph and a gut instinct that there is a lost city to uncover somewhere beneath the Botswana cliffs. Soon, a whispered curse and a chance encounter with a local tribe lead him to discover much more than city foundations. The curse, it seems, is real, and will link Ben, his oldest friend, and the woman they both love with a forgotten leader from two thousand years ago, in a city of glory and honour that subsequently disappeared without a trace. But what happened to that ancient civilisation? And what is it that connects that lost empire to Ben, and the violent dangers he must face in the present day?
