The Brave Young Wings (1980) By Ronald Dodds
 
During the First World War, Canada never succeeded in forming its own air service. However, thousands of young Canadians served in the Royal Naval Air Service, the Royal Flying Corps, and later, the Royal Air Force, playing a part out of all proportion to their country's population.
 
 Canada's Wings, Inc., Thousands of young Canadians served in the RNAS, RFC, and, later, the RAF during World War I. Along with the stories of famous "aces" such as Bishop, Barker, and Collishaw are the men who flew bombers, the Zeppelin, U-boat hunters, observation aircraft pilots, and their observers. The appendices include: Canadian fatalities in the British flying services; Honors and awards; Canadian aerial victories; and Ranks and abbreviations. Numerous photographic illustrations.
