You are correct, an illustration of relying on memory rather than walking to another room and look at the title.Smithy said:I imagine you mean "Fighter" by Len Deighton. . . .

Day to day overview, personal memories (some never published before), lots of background material and loaded with pictures, paintings and drawings. In a stunning layout. Need I say more?

I've always recommended Richard Townshend Bickers book as the first intro book on the BoB so now I'm really interested to see Bishop's tome.
Did you receive Dilip's book as well?

Sounds like something I should get hold of.
