Summer is when I read true crime books. "Auto Focus - The Murder of Bob Crane" is a paperback that came out in 2002 when the Greg Kinnear film was released. Since I remember watching Hogan's Heroes in the late 60's, I found this book about that era very interesting.

Well, Let's see:

Whatever military history titles I can get my hands on from Osprey at Historicon. They're nothing if not prolific and heck, there is a book on Japanese air defenses of the Home Islands in '45 that I really wanna read. (Sure, it was mostly a futile effort, but seeing as how I am getting into air wargaming in the Pacific theater, I thought to myself just how in the world did the Japanese manage to shoot down ANY of the B-29s?)

The new John Ringo Aldanta series book, it's co-written with Tom Krathenauer?(sp?) who wrote State of Disobediance I also have to read the Ringo/Weber "March to the Sea" series. Prince Rodger sounds like fun.

I am also looking for other titles on the defense of the Philipines 1941-42. I read Corrigador by Eric Morris and the offical history (Have them both) but I am also hoping to find some other works as well.
