I do intend on finishing that WW2 'blitz' through my local library's collection, but it'll be a while. Probably August at the soonest...Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097908023032528200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-980951139270141970.post-82970871092795152762016-05-11T15:19:03.225-05:002016-05-11T15:19:03.225-05:00I thought I'd read quite a few WW2 books recen...I thought I'd read quite a few WW2 books recently but looking at my actual reviews - not so much and most of them turned out to be fiction or even science-fiction. [grin] I do have some general history planned that covers 39-45 but noting specific until my 3rd tank book - then it's pre-20th century for a while. WW2 later in the year then!<br /><br />Of your list I've read The Battle of Britain by Len Deighton and I have copies of The Miracle of Dunkirk by Walter Lord, With Wings Like Eagles: A History of the Battle of Britain by Michael Korda and A Higher Call by Adam Makos and Larry Alexander.<br /><br />My focus and my main interest is when Britain stood alone - so really between France falling and the US materially making an impact after they joined the fight. Lots of material there though!CyberKittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394155516712665665noreply@blogger.com
