Green Balls The Adventures of a Night Bomber by Paul Bewsher 1919 First Edition Hardback Book with 309 pages published by William Blackwood and Sons good condition. Aviator, writer and poet, Paul Bewsher served in the Royal Naval Air Service from 1915 to 1918, before transferring to the Royal Air force from 1918 1919. In Green Balls, the author vividly presents his experiences of night bomber aerial raids in France and Belgium. In this candid autobiography (originally serialised in Blackwoods magazine before appearing in this first book form edition), Bewsher captures the hearts and minds of his readers: 'I have tried faithfully to describe the sensations, the strange inexplicable fears, the equally inexplicable fearlessness of a desk bound London youth, pitchforked into the hitherto unknown, untried occupation of bombing at night from the air'. Noffsinger provides a good biographical summary, as follows: 'Bewsher's experiences are recorded from October 1915 to April 1918 at an RNAS station in England and with No. X Wing (Handley Page) in France. Raids described include Hagendingen, Bruges aerodrome and harbour, Namur bridge and Zeebrugge Mole. He crashed at sea 10 April 1918. Later Bewsher served on HMS Manica a kite balloon ship. He was an observer of the sinking of HMS Triumph. All autographs are genuine hand signed and come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
