Garth Williams wird ewig als der Illustrator in Erinnerung bleiben, der fiktiven Charakteren eine unvergessliche Form gab. Seine künstlerische Hand erweckte die vornehme kleine Maus Stuart Little, die gutherzige Spinne Charlotte, ihren Freund Wilbur und unzählige andere Tiere, Fabelwesen und Kinder zum Leben. Obwohl Williams auch selbst mehrere Kinderbücher verfasste, sind es vor allem sein einzigartiger Illustrationsstil und seine Fähigkeit, Charakteren ausgeprägte Persönlichkeiten zu verleihen, die sein Erbe begründeten. Seine Arbeit zeigte auch die Kraft der Kunst, sich mit gesellschaftlichen Diskursen auseinanderzusetzen.

Focusing on the U.S. military's development of special aircraft types during World War II, including many experimental aircraft and one-off secret projects, this book shows how U.S. aviation designs and weapons progressed under the pressure of global warfare. From the state-of-the-art aircraft at the beginning of the war, to the advances during the conflict, each special type is covered in detail: armed photo reconnaissance, catapult launched seaplanes, naval floatplanes, autogyros, and special-operations armed drones. Often described as less glamorous than fighters and bombers, these special types of WWII combat aircraft offer a unique contribution to military aviation and aeronautical advancement.
