Heroes Take Wings / Paddock, Charles L / (HB/1942-1942/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Vintage book is well but gently used with minor cover wear and is clean.*

A thrilling collection of biographical sketches relating the stories of ambitious young people who made a success, and who stand out as worthy examples for other boys and girls.

We couldn't begin to tell you of all these interesting stories. We shall have to leave that for "Heroes take Wings." Have you heard of "Those crazy Wright Brothers"? of "Florence and Her Sick Dolls"? Do you remember the name of the boy who "Floated down the Mississippi on a Raft"? Or "The Lad Who Became an Army Major at Nineteen"? These are only a few of the fascinating stories you will find in Heroes Take Wings.
