What other titles do you have regarding the Beau Dan?
Collected over time, with a lot of it spent on
www.abebooks.com trying not to spend too much
I have Bob Brahm's book "Nightfighter, and C.F. Rawnsley's book "Nightfighter" about his time flying Beaus with Cunningham, but I've tried to keep it to the daylight guys as they'd apply most to AH. If I was going to start someone down the Beaufighter path, I'd start them with "Beaufighters in the Pacific" by Parnell. It's my absolute favorite of all of them. "Strike and Strike again" is second as it covers the Norway runs.
