About This Item
Toronto: Dundurn Group, 2002. 1st edition. As New. octavo. dust jacket 232pp., b/w plates, maps, appendix, index, In this explosive new biography, Brereton Greehous exposes the myth of Billy Bishop. While his bravery never comes into question (Bishop was as courageous as any of the men who risked their lives in those early warplanes) his credibility as a storyteller does. From exaggerations and half-truths to flat-out lies, stories of BishopÕs legendary exploits contain as much fiction as they do fact.
