Despite months waging epic battles of his own with studio executives, Wild Bill managed to finish the big-budget war saga by inventing many of the techniques still used to film aerial battle scenes. The film, starring Clara Bow, broke box office records and earned its studio the first Academy Award for Best Picture. Considered by many to be the last great film of the silent era, Wings has been cited as a major influence on such directors as Martin Scorsese and Robert Redford. Its director, who went on to direct the likes of John Wayne, James Cagney, and Gary Cooper, later earned an Oscar for writing one of Hollywood's most loved (and often remade) films, A Star is Born.

Westport: Praeger, Date: 2006. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy in a near fine jacket (corner crease to front flap). This copy inscribed by William Jr to a familly member on the half-title page. "Wild Bill" Wellman was not Paramount Pictures' first choice to direct the World War 1 epic "Wings", but as a former aviator and war hero, he was the right choice, even though for months he waged his own war with studio executives. The film, starring Clara Bow, broke box office records and earned its studio the first Academy Award for Best Picture. Considered by many to be the last great film of the silent era, 'Wings' had a major influence of many directors far into the future. Augmented with personal correspondence from Wellman's own World War 1 tour of duty as a fighter pilot, on-set photographs from Wings and other classic Hollywood films, and anecdotes from the back lots of the early studio system, this unique work traces the way in which the first Best Picture's director used his own war experience to bring his epic to the screen. Illustrated from photographs. 2006. Praeger ISBN 0275985415 9780275985417 [US]
