Ep.201 - three authors and a publication (aviation history roundtable)
Mick Oakey, Robert Forsyth and Chris Gibson come back to the History Round Table to answer listener questions. We discuss what books do not get written, what they would love to read, their proudest work and what do they think about graphics and photos in books and articles.
Along with advice for budding aviation authors this is an enjoyable roundtable that book enthusiasts and those
interested in aviation history will enjoy.
Oh and there are a few outtakes right at the end!

Ep.199 - Tuskegee Airmen with Samuel de Korte
Samuel de Korte is a graduate student of Utrecht University, where he studied an MA in the Cultural History of Modern Europe.
He wrote his Master's thesis about the representation of black Americans during the Second World War, indicating that although they formed a substantial part of the American armed forces, they don't receive an equal share in the representation in contemporary media.
His new book ‘Tuskegee Airmen - Dogfighting with the Luftwaffe and Jim Crow’ is published by Pen and Sword.
We focus on the human and personal issues they faced. If unfamiliar with the events, this can be a sensitive issue that some might find uncomfortable.
The presenter and guest views are their own and not those of the podcast or publisher (or others associated with this episode).

Ep.196 - Operation Gratitude and 'Target Hong Kong'
Steven Bailey discovered that the story of the U.S. Navy airstrikes on Japanese-held Hong Kong during the final year of World War II had never been told.
Operation Gratitude involved nearly 100 U.S. Navy warships and close to a thousand planes.
His new book ‘Target Hong Kong’ brings this massive operation down to a human scale, recounting the air raids through the experiences of seven men whose lives intersected at Hong Kong in January 1945.
Steven joins us to share the story and help us better understand the Operation, its people and its legacy.
