That Which Hath Wings is a 1918 novel by Richard Dehan, a wartime story whose chapter titles point to romance, aviation, secret missions, and a cast moving through Paris and wartime Europe. It follows young people caught in the upheaval of the day, and is worth listening to for its period atmosphere and narrative sweep.
