Wings of Their Dreams follows the flight plans and footsteps of aviation's pioneers and trailblazers across the twentieth century, a path from Kitty Hawk to the Sea of Tranquility and beyond. The book reminds readers that the first and last men to land on the moon first trekked across the West Lafayette, Indiana, campus on their journeys into the heavens and history. This is the story of an aeronautic odyssey of imagination, science, engineering, technology, adventure, courage, danger, and promise. It is the story of the human spirit taking flight, entwined with Purdue's legacy in aviation's history."-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Purdue University $x Research. 610 27 $a Purdue University. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00535526 650 0 $a Aeronautics $x Research $z Lafayette. $z Lafayette. 650 7 $a Aeronautics $x Research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798376 650 7 $a Research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01095153 651 7 $a Indiana $z Lafayette. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204553 776 08 $i Online version: $a Norberg, John. $t Wings of their dreams $b Second edition. $d West Lafayette, Indiana : Purdue University Press, [2020] $z 9781612496108 $w (DLC) 2019026247 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200204031133.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F951859C2DF611EAB868BF0597128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
