Sky Storming Yankee: The Life Story Of Glenn Curtiss is a biography of the famous aviation pioneer, Glenn Curtiss, written by Clara Studer. The book traces Curtiss' life from his childhood in upstate New York to his rise as a successful entrepreneur and inventor in the early 20th century. Curtiss played a pivotal role in the development of aviation, designing and building some of the first successful airplanes and helping to establish the aviation industry in the United States. The book explores Curtiss' many achievements, including his record-breaking flights, his role in the development of naval aviation, and his contributions to the design of seaplanes and other aircraft. It also delves into Curtiss' personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and colleagues. Through extensive research and interviews with Curtiss' contemporaries, Studer provides a comprehensive and engaging portrait of one of the most important figures in the history of aviation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
