From the Dust Jacket: "These diaries of the father of Wilbur and Orville Wright record the full range of experiences of his adult life from 1857 to his death in 1917. They provide a detailed chronicle of Milton Wright's dynamic, and sometimes controversial, ministry and leadership in the United Brethren Church, and his role as the father of the famed inventors of powered flight Probably the most important contribution the diaries make to present day scholarship on the Wright Brothers is the greater knowledge we gain about the dynamics of the Wright family Taken as a whole, the diaries provide an essential resource in the study of the history of the Wright Brothers' career in aviation, the history of the United Brethren Church, and the life of a man dedicated to his family and his church." kEYWORDS: Wright Brothers.
