Title: RIP David McCullouch, biographer of the most significant bicycle makers ever
Post by: Andre Jute on August 12, 2022, 01:16:10 AM
Historian David McCollouch has died at 89. He is the author, besides many other acclaimed histories, of The Wright Brothers,
"an American story if ever there was one about two brothers who owned a bicycle shop, built and were the first to successfully fly an airplane."
-- quotation from Cal Thomas at

The Wright Brothers is a thrilling book and Mccullough highlights, too, the near-endless devotion of Wilbur and Orville's supportive sister.
