Review # 1 was written on 2020-08-06 00:00:00 Danielle Rodriguez It's a hobby of mine to read something with local flavor when on a holiday. I chose this on a family trip to OBX, and it was an amazing experience to sit on the dunes at Kitty Hark while reading this. |
Review # 2 was written on 2014-05-20 00:00:00 CAROL SPOON With all due respect to Da Capo Press--I have and enjoy several books published by Da Capo--I think Orville and Wilbur Wright would have taken offense at the peculiar title of this book (Miracle at Kitty Hawk). I suspect the Wright Brothers themselves would have wished to emphasize the fact that their work was the product of uniquely human skills such as patience, perseverance, research and analysis, trial and error, and good old fashioned hard work, rather than intangibles that diminish the human experience such as luck, magic, miracles, or providence. Normally, I try not to pick on words when it serves no purpose, but in this case, whoever titled this particular publication really missed the boat . . . or the plane, literally. |
