CBC Showcase: Women's History Month and National Poetry Month
The first complete biography of the Wright Brothers' sister. A touching story that casts an intimate light on the lives of these two famous men.
by Richard Maurer
"Working from Katherine Wright's papers, correspondences, and family archives, Maurer chronicles the events surrounding Wilbur and Orville, while all along filling in the details of their younger sister's life and the relationships among the three. . . The Wright Sister is a handsome piece of bookmaking. Maurer has found photographs not used elsewhere that help to focus on Katherine and give this treatment a unique touch." —School Library Journal, starred review
