520 |a In this biography, William F. Trimble examines the pioneering work of Glenn Curtiss and his role in the originsof aviation in the U.S. Navy in the years up to and through World War I.A self-taught mechanic and inventor, Curtiss was a key figure in the development of the airplane during the early part of the century and his contributions to aviation are well known.
