I've read Samurai and Stuka Pilot! Another good book is On Boyington's Wing, written by Pappy Boyington's wingman. If you want a good WWI read, checkout Wind in the Wires and An Escaper's Log, both by Duncan Grinnell-Milne. He was a British pilot who got shot down and captured, but escaped and returned to the air to become an ace (6 kills I think) Basically, you've gotta read the first half of WitW, then An Escaper's Log, then the rest of Wind in the Wires. Escaper's Log was written first, hence the weird format. They're both fairly hard to find, so if you're interested, I'd suggest Inter Library Loan (or whatever they call it outside the US).
