He was almost thrown out of military college for cheating, but he went on to become the most famous of the First World War fighter pilots. Though he became a darling of the press, Bishop grew tired of the carnage of the war. Author Dan McCaffery offers a lively, compelling portrait of Bishop. His meticulous research has settled, once and for all, the controversy over whether Bishop lied to win his Vicotria Cross. Warts and all, Bishop emerges as a true Canadian hero.
