What to Read: The Wright Brothers by David McCullough

If you’re looking for a book that will inspire and motivate you to keep grinding towards your goals, I highly recommend David McCullough’s book The Wright Brothers. David McCullough tells their story with all the skill and finesse of a generational historian, weaving together a narrative that is informative, witty, and endlessly engaging. Through the ups and downs of American entrepreneurship, we follow Orville and Wilbur on their journey to achieve the impossible – powered, controlled flight. This comprehensive biography of the famous aviators not only recounts the incredible story of how these brothers from Ohio invented the first successful airplane, but also explores the American entrepreneurship and ingenuity that made their achievement possible. Above all though, the Wright Brothers’ story serves as a testament to the perseverance and determination required to succeed in any field, making this book a must-read for anyone seeking to never quit in the pursuit of their own dreams.
