BLOODY PARALYSER The Giant Handley Page Bombers of the First World War

£8.99

This is an exhaustive yet highly readable account of the history of the Handley Page O/100, the improved O/400 and the vast V/1500 through their conception, development and service. The book’s title of course refers to the famous request to Handley Page for a ‘bloody paralyser’ of an aircraft for the Royal Naval Air Service, which fits with the subsequent notion of the giant Handley Pages as Britain’s first strategic heavy bombers – though the reality is not quite that simple.
