Billy Bishop started as a Canadian military student eager for action during World War I, but found his true calling in the air—transitioning from observer to pilot and eventually becoming one of the war's deadliest aces, downing 72 enemy planes in a series of daring raids across France. When the Second World War erupted, the retired executive was called back to service as Air Marshal, tasked with building Canada's air force from the ground up and training thousands of new pilots to face the Nazi threat. This is the story of how a determined young officer became both a legendary combat flyer and the architect of an entire fighting air force.

The Story of the Red Cross
6 pp · non-fiction; history

In 1942, this story traces the humble origins of the Red Cross through the compassionate vision of Jean Henri Dunant, a Swiss humanitarian moved by the horrors of the 1859 Battle of Solferino, and draws inspiration from the pioneering work of Florence Nightingale in reforming wartime medical care. Dunant's dream of an international organization dedicated to relief work across all nations led to the founding of the Red Cross and its now-universal symbol, establishing principles of mercy that transcend borders and warfare. Today, the story shows, the Red Cross responds to humanity's greatest needs—from battlefields to natural disasters—and calls on Americans to join in this vital work of compassion.

His greatest challenge came in 1919 when he commanded one of three Navy flying boats attempting the first transatlantic mass flight, navigating treacherous conditions and mechanical failures to prove that long-range naval aviation was practical. This is the story of how one pioneering airman helped build the foundation of America's naval air fleet.
