Octavo, paperbound (slick, stiff, illustrated blue wrappers), 148 pp. Fine, with bookplate. From lower cover: On the day of the declaration of war, Harold Rosher applied for a commission in the Royal Naval Air Service. The letters which form this book were written between August 1914 and February 1916. They are spontaneous and utterly unstudied documents, and they have been printed almost exactly as Rosher wrote them. Many of them are quite ordinary; most are spiced with slang; the long ones describing his share in the great historic raids are thrillingly dramatic. Three days after the date of the last letter, at the age of twenty two, Rosher was killed. Aviation, Royal Naval Air Service, Military History. bslic.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: None. First edition, second printing - 1916. Full bound blue cloth boards, with some bubbbling to front and creasing to rear board. Gilt lettering to front board, but gilt to spine has worn away. Solid binding, with slight lean. Some browning of pages. Frontispice tissue guard has left brown stain to near full extent of title page. 149 pages, 23 B&W photos. This book collects the letters written by Harold Rosher during the war years from August 1914 up to his death at age 22 in February 1916. These letters provide a uniquely personal glimpse of one young Englishman's experiences during World War One - all the more fascinating as they document a period early in the development of the aircraft as a weapon of war. As the Introduction states: "[The letters] are spontaneous and utterly unstudied documents, and they have been printed almost exactly as Harold wrote them. Many of them are quite ordinary; most are spiced with slang; the long ones describing his share in the great historic raids are thrillingly dramatic.".
