New Book Available on RCAF in England and Europe in WWII

I just finished reading "Artillery Flyers at War - A History of the 664, 665 and 666 'Air Observation Post' Squadrons of the Royal Canadian Air Force," by Darrell Knight, and published by Merriam Press in Vermont. Fairly good read and plenty of detail and photographs; AOP pilots and observers were fearless, flying an unarmed 130-hp driven Taylorcraft into the front-line areas to deliver 'the goods' for Allied artillery units.

Same author wrote a DC-3 history entitled "Buffalo Airways - Diamonds, DC-3s and Buffalo Joe McBryan," but I have yet to order an Apple iPod or a Kindle-reader, as that one is an e-book only.
