Trying to re-read Operation Drumbeat, thinking about giving up because the Kindle conversion is probably the worst I've ever seen, and there's so many typos some sentences are practically unreadable. I'm 6% in, and I've seen U-123 called "II-/23," "V-123," "V-!23," and "J/23." Lesson learned: You pay $0.99 for a Kindle book, you get your money's worth.

Found a copy of this book at Barnes & Noble today for $8.99. Includes a large number of detailed cut-aways of aircraft and engines from "The Aeroplane" and "Flight" drawn during the war.

Are listening to part 1 of 3 The Second World War - by John Keegan on youtube. Only negative is the commers every 10 minuter, the positive is that you can skip the ad after 5 sec.

I just bought the first book of Arthur Marder's five-volume "Dreadnought to Scapa Flow" series. I'm hoping the first book is good enough for me to buy the entire series eventually. I've been reading lots of books on ships lately, but it's been a long time I've read a real epic naval history.
