Green Balls: The Adventures Of A Night Bomber is a memoir written by Paul Bewsher, a British pilot who flew bombing missions during World War I. The book was first published in 1919 and provides a vivid account of Bewsher’s experiences as a night bomber, including the dangers he faced and the adrenaline rush of flying over enemy territory. Bewsher’s narrative takes the reader through his training as a pilot, his deployment to France, and his missions over German lines. He describes the challenges of navigating and locating targets in the dark, as well as the constant threat of anti-aircraft fire and enemy fighters. The title ''Green Balls'' refers to the luminous green flares that the Germans used to illuminate their targets at night, making them easier to hit. Bewsher recounts his encounters with these flares and the eerie glow they cast over the battlefield. The book also includes illustrations and photographs, providing a visual record of Bewsher’s experiences. Overall, Green Balls: The Adventures Of A Night Bomber offers a compelling and personal account of the bravery and sacrifice of World War I pilots, and provides a fascinating insight into the technology and tactics of early air warfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
