The Wright Brothers: Pioneers of American Aviation (Landmark Books)

I read this book when I was in school,It was in मराठी though,and it was very aptly translated.Just a book I wanted for my son.

Pros: This Landmark Wright Brothers book is well-written by an established author. Great information. Gripping story line. Love of country explicitly expressed. Not a whiff of superiority to established culture present. A breath of fresh air.Cons: It is dated in its tone of voice. Written "for children" in a way no longer done. Younger children will not notice this, but older children and adults need to be prepared to overlook it for the book's other, and far superior qualities as compared to the Who, What, Where modern series (which are well-written without talking down, but which have been spoiled by the gratuitous insertion of Critical Race Theory, Hate USA, self-righteous myth-busting and Stirring up Resentment at all kinds of mankind's and Western Civilization's and the USA's so-called "systemic" evils.)The old landmark books are innocent, straightforward and intent not on twisting but on telling great stories about great people rising out of and also shaping great cultures. Far preferable.

GREAT book, we are using it for "free reading" time in homeschool and my daughter, 10, is enjoying it very much! Short chapters that are great for narrating back to Mom!

Fantastic read my 8 yr old loved the stories and its very well written

Gute Story, interessant und kurzweilig. Auch kein Problem für Englischanfänger mit begrenztem Wortschatz. Leider bin ich mit dem Buch schon durch.

Kept the interest of my 3rd grader and lead to some great questions to be researched outside of the book. Very engaging book.
