There are two books I would recommend. The first is Robert Shaw's Fighter Combat: Tactics and Maneuvering.

http://www.amazon.com/Fighter-Combat...8438284&sr=1-4

While more jet oriented, it gives a valuable history and summary of dogfighting maneuvers and tactics from Boelcke's Dicta to the present.

The second book is Wolfgang Langewiesche's Stick and Rudder.

http://www.amazon.com/Stick-Rudder-E...8438478&sr=1-1

While not a book on dogfighting, it was written during World War II by a former Corsair test pilot. In a very easy to read fashion, it gives valuable insights on how aircraft maneuver, and what can go wrong.
