New World War II book soon out in paperback
4th June, 2007: Oneoff Publishing.com will soon publish Nolan Lewis’ book, Clouds Are Always White On Top in a paperback edition. The book is about the adventures of an American Pilot during World War II. The paperback edition will be published on 9th August 2007. It will be priced at £11.95 in the UK and $15.95 in the US.
The hardback edition of the book, which was published last year, has received good reviews and these can be viewed at the Oneoff Publishing.com web site.
The book begins in 1943 when the Nazis war machine had subdued most of Western Europe. A very young Ted Norman joins the 448th Bomb Group based in Seething, England, as part of the Allies effort to win the war. Casualties are high with typically 1 in 20 aircraft missing every mission. As the bombing raids push ever further into enemy territory, Ted is forced to reach the very limit of his own endurance in order to become the Captain his men depend on.
This is a work of fiction. But the 448th Bomb Group, Very Heavy, was real. The 448th lost 137 planes to all causes in its eighteen months in the Europe, with a maximum of 48 B-24s assigned at any one time.
The author, Nolan Lewis, has used his experiences of World War II to create a vividly realistic story of a young B24 bomber pilot. Since the war he has pursued many different occupations including writer and reporter for various companies including Portland Oregonian, KGW-TV News, Portland Public Schools Public Information Office, Gold Prospector Magazine, Cruising World, and several minor magazines. He currently lives in Ione, WA, USA.
The author is available for interview, comment or book signings. Copies of the book are available for reviews in other publications. Contact Bill Stephen of Oneoff Publishing.com for further details.
