Chennault and His Flying Tigers

A retired Army pilot answers an urgent call from China and transforms a ragtag squadron of American volunteers into a legendary fighting force—the Flying Tigers—armed with worn P-40s, tactical brilliance, and shark-painted fuselages that strike fear into Japanese pilots. General Chennault and his men prove that ingenuity and teamwork can overcome impossible odds, racking up a staggering kill ratio while defending China's skies. This is the true account of how a small band of determined Americans became a symbol of hope for the United Nations.

On the Warpath for Canada

Among the pioneer builders of Canada stood Oureauhare, Chief of the Cayugas, whose loyalty to the French crown was tested when Governor Denonville treacherously seized him and sent him to the galleys in chains. When the new Governor Frontenac arrives in Canada and offers Oureauhare a chance at redemption and friendship, the chief must navigate the dangerous politics of colonial peace-making while facing the hatred of the Iroquois Five Nations—and earning the trust of a governor who questions whether his Indian ally can truly be relied upon.

Army Air Chief
4 pp

Lieutenant General Henry "Hap" Arnold's rise from a young pilot determined to fly despite the doubters to commander of America's Army Air Force unfolds across pivotal moments in aviation history—from becoming the first man to fly over a mile high in 1912 to pioneering fire-fighting from the air and mid-air refueling. Watch as Arnold's ingenuity and persistence transform a fledgling air corps into the powerhouse that would carry the nation through World War II, culminating in his appointment as head of a unified command just months after Pearl Harbor.

The Unseen Enemy

When France's wine industry faces ruin from mysteriously spoiled shipments, the renowned scientist Louis Pasteur returns to his native Arbois to investigate the invisible culprit destroying the trade. Using his microscope to examine samples of damaged wine, Pasteur discovers that tiny living microbes are responsible for the spoilage—and that gentle heat can stop them from growing. His revolutionary solution will transform not just wine production, but preservation methods across industries for generations to come.

The Gentleman from Virginia
6 pp

General Robert E. Lee grapples with the South's crumbling military fortunes following the disastrous Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, wrestling with his own sense of responsibility even as he refuses to abandon his post. As Grant takes command of Union forces and presses the Confederate Army relentlessly through 1864 and into 1865, Lee confronts impossible odds—dwindling supplies, exhausted troops, and mounting casualties—while maintaining his unwavering commitment to his soldiers. This account traces the General's final campaign and the weight of command as the tide of war turns decisively against the South.

Mutiny in the Classroom
2 pp · non-fiction

In Nazi-occupied Holland, a teacher named Herr Rauter assigns his students to write compositions praising Adolf Hitler, Herman Goering, and Joseph Goebbels—only to discover that the young scholars have instead submitted essays riddled with sharp-tongued mockery of the Nazi leaders. What unfolds is a quiet act of classroom defiance that shows how even children too young to fight can resist their occupiers through wit and courage.

She Lived in Glory
7 pp

A chronicle of the U.S.S. Lexington's final hours during the Coral Sea naval battle in May 1942, when the aircraft carrier endured relentless Japanese attacks, fires, and internal explosions while her crew fought to keep her operational and defend against enemy forces. As fires spread below deck and systems fail one by one, Captain Sherman and his officers—including Commander Seligman and ship's surgeon Commander White—struggle to maintain order and save what they can, even as the ship's fate becomes inevitable. A tribute to the courage and discipline of her fighting men as they face the moment of reckoning.

When his country called again in 1939, the retired champion answered, taking charge of the U.S. Navy's physical training program to build stronger, fitter servicemen for the fight ahead. This is the story of a man who gave his strength twice to America.

Last Message from Corregidor

In the final hours before surrender, a young American officer and a Filipino radio operator transmit one last desperate message from Corregidor, their voices carrying hope and resolve amid the encroaching silence of war.

Five R.A.F. flyers, shot down over occupied Europe in 1940, escape their Nazi pursuers and embark on a perilous journey across Belgium and France with help from brave locals who risk everything to shelter them. Hunted at every turn by German patrols and informants, the five must navigate from village to village under cover of darkness, relying on the kindness of resistance sympathizers to reach the safety of England. It's a gripping true account of courage, narrow escapes, and the quiet heroism of ordinary people who choose freedom over fear.
