Glenn Curtiss (18781930) was a selftaught aeronautical engineer, a selfmade industrialist, and one of the first airplane pilots, the model for Tom Swift. C. R. Roseberrys biography begins with Curtisss years in Hammondsport, New York, his experiments with designing and learning to fly his own airplanes, and his many firsts in aviation history. Establishing one of the first aviation schools, Curtiss also developed a highly successful aviation company and designed one of the most popular early American planesthe Curtiss JN4 (the Jenny). More than just a biography, this is also a welldocumented history of the development of aviation and the key figures associated with it during the first three crucial decades of this century. Through an examination of Curtisss dealings with people such as Alexander Graham Bell, his original partner, and Wilbur and Orville Wright, his most important rivals, Roseberry provides insight into the overall development of flight in America. Aviation enthusiasts, historians, those interested in American technology and industry, and all who enjoy a good story will welcome this book.
