Given the RAF’s importance, it should come as no surprise that some of the pilots ranked among Britain’s most recognized war heroes, and Douglas Bader remains one of the most famous British soldiers in World War II. He has become synonymous with courage and perseverance in adversity, especially since both his legs were amputated after an air crash in 1931, yet he managed to continue flying and return to the RAF at the outbreak of the war in 1939. He became a well-decorated and highly promoted fighter ace before being shot down and taken prisoner by the Germans.

Contained in this book is the story of Miyamoto Musashi. Born in the 16th century in the Harima Province of Japan, he was (and still is) considered the greatest swordsman that ever lived. At the age of 17, he forewent the practice of farming to embrace life as a travelling swordsman, fighting duels with the best swordsmen he could find. From the day he unsheathed his sword until he breathed his last breath, he remained undefeated. Musashi-san was more than just a warrior. He was an artist, a philosopher, a teacher, a poet, a sage, and a hermit.

Spying and treachery are as much a part of warfare as weapons and death. This has always been the case since the earliest battles and is not likely to change in the future. And yet, even within this irregular system, there are certain rules, especially in past eras such as the American Revolution. First, while spying on behalf of one's country is perfectly respectable, betraying one's nation is treason. Second, honorable men do not involve those too innocent to understand the consequences of their actions in their schemes.
