Erstausgabe
Hardcover with dust jacket. Zustand: very good condition. First Edition. First Printing. - - The Bishop's Boys, Tom Crouch's new biography of Wilbur and Orville Wright, offers fresh insight into one of the most important stories of the twentieth Century. Stripping away the layers of myth, adulation, and controversy, this book shows the Wrights as they were. Brilliant, self-trained engineers, their unique blend of native talent, character, and family experience perfectly suited them to the task of invention, but left them ill-prepared to face a world of skeptics, rivals, business executives, and government officials. The result is a portrait that will surprise and delight even those who think they know something of the two brothers from Dayton. - Crouch, a leading historian of aviation, has made use of a treasure trove of Wright family correspondence and diaries overlooked by previous writers. He tells a tale within a tale, skillfully weaving the story of the invention of the airplane into the drama of a unique and unforgettable family, bound together by devotion to one another, absolute faith in their own righ-teousness, and a deep distrust of the world beyond their doorstep. 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. - Step by step, he leads readers back over the path blazed by the Wright brothers, capturing the essence of their genius in the process. It is all here - brilliant flashes of insight balanced against moments of discouragement; long hours of work at a home-made wind tunnel followed by the exhilaration of a few brief seconds in the air; the triumph of success offset by the struggle to gain recognition and market the invention. - But the story of the invention of the airplane is only the core of The Bishop's Boys. The book opens with an unforgettable portrait of Bishop Milton Wright, a father who was determined to guide his children along the path of righteousness, and closes with the death of Orville Wright in 1948. Along the way we share the years of brilliant inventive effort leading to the triumph of practical flight; taste the breathtaking excitement of early exhibition flying; and experience the long struggle against those who sought to steal the honor and the rewards due the inventors of the airplane. - An intellectual adventure and a moving portrait of two men and their family, The Bishop's Boys is great both as biography and as history, a classic account of a classic American saga. 606 p. photos.

Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine / Near FIne. First Edition. Small folio, 12.25 in. x 12.5 in., pp. 334. Blach cloth boards with blind-stamped mandala design and silver tiotle to front. Silver title to spine. In the fall of 1899, Charles A.A. Dellschau (1830-1923), a retired butcher and who later worked in the Stelzig family saddlery business in Houston, embarked on a project that would occupy him for more than 20 years. What began as an illustrated manuscript recounting his experiences in the California Gold Rush, became an obsessive project resulting in 12 large, hand-bound books with more than 2,500 drawings related to airships and the development of flight. Dellschau's designs resemble traditional hot air balloons augmented with fantastic visual details, collage and text. The hand-drawn "Aeros" were interspersed with collaged pages called "Press Blooms," featuring thousands of newspaper clippings related to the political events and technological advances of the period. After the artist's death in 1923, the books were stored in the attic of the family home in Houston. In the aftermath of a fire in the 1960s, they were dumped on the sidewalk and salvaged by a junk dealer. Eight made their way into the collections of the San Antonio Museum of Art, the Witte Museum and the Menil Collection; the remainder were sold to a private collector. Dellschau's works have since been collected by numerous other museums including the American Folk Art Museum, the High Museum, the John Michael Kohler Arts Center and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Like the eccentric outpourings of Adolf Wölfli, Henry Darger and Achilles Rizzoli, these private works were not created for the art world, but to satisfy a driving internal creative force. Dreamer, optimist and visionary, Charles Dellschau is one of the earliest documented outsider artists known in America. (from Charles Dellschau website).
