I would recommend starting out with Mike Specks "Luftwaffe Fighter Aces". Costs about 5.99 and has a good over view of the war from the German Airforces side. Has unit structure, swarm, jaggerswader stuff and mentions all the important officers and names etc... Thats what I started out with. Then "Guns of the Luftwaffe"...

;)

JG26: Top Guns of the Luftwaffe

Really nice and easy read recounting the days and weeks from the JG perspective throughout the war.
