Summary

"Michigan Aviation: People and Places that Changed History provides a collection of aviation stories from the Wolverine State. Starting from the early days of the twentieth century, Michigan has been at the forefront of aviation technology- from military bases to glider and aircraft manufacturing, and much more. Readers will be introduced to the men and women of Michigan whose innovation and hard work made it all possible. Along with the triumphs, there were tragedies. Even in the darkest moments, the indomitable spirit of Michigan aviators prevailed. Highlighted throughout the book are the museums and dedicated volunteers who are the stewards of Michigan's aviation legacy."--
