I already have, Smallwoods "flying the A-10 in the Gulf War", Don Logan's "A pictorial history", A-10s over Kosovo, and World Airpower Journal's A-10 special, are there any other "must have" books on the A-10?

Are there any of the Squadron Signal publications' "in action" books, ala A-10 in Action, or A-10 Walkaround?

You need to have "The Warthog and the Close Air Support Debate", by Doug Campbell. The definitive book about the development of the A-10 and the politics of a single mission CAS aircraft.

Coach

Thanks Coach I will look for that one today. Type7, all the walkaround/in action books I've seen are a little outdated but I may have to look at them again.
