Two steps to Tokyo - Gordon Powell. Fascinating account of the RAAF in the Trobriand and Admiralty Islands. Written by the author (an Air Force Chaplain) whilst in the Admiralties - great stuff.

Hugh Ferguson - the War of the World. Really interesting stuff, a history of the 20th century, but presented from an alternate view and explanations. I've already learnt of a lot of events I never even knew happened. Halfway through the section on how appeasement failed atm
