Over the years my Mum hit on the
idea that aircraft books were
perfect presents for Christmas and
my birthdays. For my 21st I
received the reprint of the 1945
edition of Janes; the so called
victory edition. It wasn’t cheap; but
then, a copy of Janes never is. If
you ever run across a copy of this
at a second hand book sale I
recommend you buy it.

I know; I’m supposed to like
Australian aircraft; but I’m a fan of
the German aircraft of World War
2 and have been since childhood.
The Captive Luftwaffe detailed
German aircraft captured by the
Allies in World War 2. It was
published by Putnams and written
by Kenneth West. While it’s very
dated now, with much later titles
on the subject now published, you
rarely see this book for sale on the
second hand market.
