1917. America enters the World War. Woodrow Bishop and his nine children move from a farm family into national and international events. Two sons distinguish themselves in the war in France. One is an aviator and one is a battlefield commissioned soldier. Airplanes develop into weapons of war. Germany develops the huge dirigible airship, a weapon of terror, taking the war to cities and bombing of civilians. Peace brings the Bishops home, involving them in oil, hotels, heavy construction, and a South American airline. Prosperity brings temptations, treachery, entrapment, murder, and near failure in the '29 crash, the Great Depression and into 1933. War clouds again form in Europe.
