内容简介
Captain Arsenio was a curious man who liked, more than anything, to tinker and explore. One day in 1782, he decided that he would put his unusual skills to work in a most ambitious way: he would build a flying machine. Despite a hodgepodge of materials (and a total unawareness of the laws of physics), Captain Arsenio aimed to get his feet off the ground and his head in the clouds--temporarily, at least. But would any of his crazy inventions ever achieve flight? In this hilarious fictional account, Pablo Bernasconi imagines a legend in the making--a retired cheesemaker and scuba diver turned inventor who sets off to fly with the birds, in spite of himself.
