That's a great read, although my copy was a bit crappily glued, so now the pages fall out of it. If you like that one, you should seek out King of Air Fighters by Ira Jones (a biography of Mick Mannock), and Saggitarrius Rising by Cecil Lewis - both good books on the same sort of subject. If you can find it, Combat Report by Bill Lambert is another good one on WW1 flying.
Currently reading
Fighting Techniques of the Medieval World AD500 - AD1500. It's pretty good and fairly comprehensive too, with everything from development of cavarly horse breeding to weapons and sea battle evolution.
