    Yes, I've seen that book too. However, I've been put off by the price/page ratio, and the fact that nobody else has recommended it yet either.

    However, I have a couple of books on my wishlist (though quite low at the moment because the last thing I want to do is develop interest in another vast area of the RAF that would cost me a fortune :mad2:):

    A Forgotten Offensive: Royal Air Force Coastal Command's Anti-shipping Campaign, 1940-45

    Search, Find and Kill!: Coastal Command's U-boat Successes in World War Two


    Though I really want this one:

    The Other Few: Bomber and Coastal Command Operations in the Battle of Britain

    Not a bad set of books considering you're trying not to get into CC too much...don't think I've got any CC books. Sad state of affairs really but am enjoying the anti-shipping, low level Med work too much at the moment! Peter Clare's about the only CC expert I know. Is he coming over from the dark side, I wonder?

    You know you want to...:bolt:

    The book on coastal command that I am looking for is called "Coastal Command Through the Looking Glass" it was a series of cartoons produced by members of coastal command about their lifes and work! I remeber reading it in the SASOs office at Pitreavie caste while on guard duty!

    Will keep my eyes open, Morse! Sounds like a ripper book.

    Sounds interesting, Morse - but I can't find any reference to it on abe etc. Must be very rare
