WW2 Books that you've read??

[Blue Leader]

Ive read a fair few book on this subject and I highly recommend the following:

Fighter Boys by Patrick Bishop. A highly entertaining look at the pilots of fighter command during 1940. It covers the culture and its genesis in the squadrons of flanders and the aces like mannock and ball, through to the conception of Cranwell, the pilots and their background and their eventual part in the battle. Lots of drinking and late nights followed with oxygen cured hangovers.

Bomber Boys by Patrick Bishop. Similar to above but a bit more sad.

Lonely Warrior by Jean Offenberg. Incredible insight into Belgiums best pilot during the Battle of Britain. Lots of action.

Fighter Pilot by Paul Richey. Paul was a good pilot and a great writer and his personal accounts of flying and fghting with no 1 squadron in France during the Phoney War and the Battle of France are essential reading.

Just finished re-reading "Dive Bomber!" by Peter C. Smith.

Best history on the Dive Bomber's developement I've ever read. Absolutely lays waste to the claim that the Stuka was "finished" after the Battle of Britian, and that Strategic Bombing "won the war."

Great read.

I've read loads of books on WW2. I particularly enjoy reading personal accounts from pilots/aircrew, but I've always read ones from the Allies side. Can anyone recommend some Luftwaffe accounts?
