I thought I would draw attention to four new books I saw in Paper Plus last night. Unfortunately it was just before closing so I didn't get the opportunity for a decent browse.
"Courage in the Skies" by Paul Harrison & ? Memory still affected by ear problem!
I had bit of a skim and it seemed to be a aimed more at people with only a smattering of knowledge but closer inspection may change that impression.
"Letters from Gallipoli". A very quick skim but it looked good. Dave, there were aircraft at Gallipoli! ;D
"Kiwi Battlefieds". I didn't have time to look at that book.
"Last of the Human Freedoms". This is a book about French people who during WW2 assisted New Zealanders at great risk to themselves. I assume most if not all were NZ Airmen. This looks to be very interesting covering as far as I am aware, a subject which has not previously been canvassed in any depth.
