Bill Yenne is the author of more than three dozen non-fiction books, as well as a dozen novels. His work has been selected for Chief of Staff of the Air Force Reading List, and he is the recipient of the Air Force Association's Gill Robb Wilson Award for the "most outstanding contribution in the field of arts and letters [as an] author whose works have shaped how thousands of Americans understand and appreciate airpower." Mr. Yenne has contributed to encyclopedias of both world wars, and has appeared in documentaries airing on the History Channel, the National Geographic Channel, C-SPAN, ARD German Television, and NHK Japanese Television. His on-air credits also include his appearance on Mystery Files: Sitting Bull on the Smithsonian Channel, which was filmed at the Little Bighorn Battlefield in Montana. General Wesley Clark called Mr. Yenne's biography of Alexander the Great, the "best yet," while The New Yorker wrote of Sitting Bull, his biography of the great Lakota leader, that it "excels as a study in leadership." General Craig McKinley, president of the Air Force Association, wrote that in Mr. Yenne's Hap Arnold: The General Who Invented the US Air Force, he had done "a superior job helping the reader better understand General Arnold both as an individual and as a military leader." His books on aviation and military history have included his Area 51 Black Jets, which T.D. Barnes, formerly with NASA High Range and Area 51 Special Projects, described as "not a book that the reader will lay down and not finish. It holds one's interest from front to back." His dual biography of Dick Bong and Tommy McGuire, Aces High: The Heroic Story of the Two Top-Scoring American Aces of World War II, was described by pilot and best-selling author Dan Roam as "The greatest flying story of all time." Mr. Yenne has written histories of America's great aircraft makers, including Convair, Lockheed, and McDonnell Douglas, and has been praised for his recently-updated The Story of the Boeing Company. The New Yorker wrote of Sitting Bull, Mr. Yenne's biography of the great Lakota leader, that it "excels as a study in leadership. The openng of the American Wes was an epic of immense proportions. It was a singular experience. In the 1890's Andrew Carnegie wrote: "The old nations of the earth creep on at a snail's pace; the Republic thunders past with the rush of the express. The United States, the growth of a single century, has already reached the foremost rank among nations, and is destined soon to out-distance all others in the race. In population, in wealth, in annual saving and in public credit, in freedom from debt, in agriculture, and in manufactures, America already leads the civilized world." When did the opening of the American West end? When was the American West finally open? Congress declared an end to the frontier in 1890, but the last Indian who died at Wounded Knee was not buried until January 1981. Geronimo lived until 1909.
