Garth Williams se navždy zapíše do paměti jako ilustrátor, který dal podobu nejrůznějším dětským postavám. Jeho umělecká ruka oživila nezapomenutelného myšáka Stuarta Littlea, laskavou pavoučici Charlottu, jejího kamaráda Viléma a mnoho dalších zvířat, pohádkových bytostí i dětí. Williams se kromě ilustrací věnoval i psaní vlastních knih pro děti, ale právě jeho jedinečný výtvarný styl a schopnost vtisknout postavám osobitost ho proslavily nejvíce. Jeho dílo rovněž poukázalo na důležitost umění v diskuzi o společenských otázkách.

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.
