    Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain, the Channel Dash, North Africa, Sicily, Dieppe, D-Day, and the fight against the V1 menace—Group Captain Bobby Oxspring saw action in many of the most famous battles of the Second World War. 
     
     
     
    His memoir of time as a Spitfire fighter is the perfect book for fans of First Light by Geoffrey Wellum, Samurai! by Saburo Sakai, and The First and the Last by Adolf Galland. 
     
     
     
    Beginning in 66 Squadron, by the end of the Battle of Britain, he was already an ace with eight enemy aircraft destroyed: three Heinkel 111s, one Dornier 17, one Me110, and three Me109s. He then went on to become flight commander in No. 41 Squadron RAF and later took command of three more squadrons. 
     
     
     
    His memoir, Spitfire Command, is a remarkable account of life as one of The Few, charting his journey through the war, flying all marks of the Spitfire—from the Mk I to the Mk XIV—right through to when he ended operational duty just a week before the war ended. Written vividly, Oxspring provides an authentic insight into the lives of the men who fought in the air. It is a fascinating and inspiring story of bravery, good humor, and sacrifice.

    Courage in Adversity - The Brave...

    Adversity is an inherent part of life that comes in many forms—whether it's a personal struggle, a professional challenge, or a global crisis. It is something that everyone will face at some point, though its shape and size may vary. Often, adversity is perceived as a barrier, a force that stands in the way of success and happiness. However, adversity can also serve as a catalyst for growth, transformation, and self-discovery. To truly understand the nature of adversity, one must first accept that it is inevitable. No one is exempt from hardship, and this is not a reflection of personal failure or weakness. Instead, it is a universal experience that connects all human beings, regardless of age, background, or circumstance. 
    In many ways, adversity is an unavoidable part of the human condition. It tests our endurance, resilience, and ability to navigate difficult situations. While facing challenges can often feel overwhelming, it also provides an opportunity for individuals to tap into their inner strength and develop qualities like perseverance, patience, and emotional fortitude. The key lies in how we respond to adversity. The manner in which we approach difficulties can shape the outcome, transforming seemingly insurmountable obstacles into stepping stones for progress.

    Relate then Educate - The Untold...

    Compiled by two former educators, Relate, Then Educate contains the firsthand stories of sixteen seasoned educators' professional hurdles and personal moments of heartbreak and joy.  To be an educator is to be thrown into the classroom without much practical training. Young teachers can languish for years without knowing if they're "doing it right," and, despite the wealth of tactical curriculum resources available, the intangible needs of educators often go overlooked and unmet. Former educators Rick Holmes and Andrea Avey understand this perspective well; they collected the stories within Relate, Then Educate for teachers seeking experienced insight and support as they decide the trajectory of their career.  This unbiased collection of candid and approachable experiences are written to challenge, inspire, correct, and console teachers—and humans—who need direction. It features stories of unthinkable tragedy, like the tragic death of a student midyear, and rich rewards, like lifelong friendships with students. Relate, Then Educate breaks down each teacher's story into three segments: their path into education, a defining moment in their career, and an instructional best practice.
