You will have to get a 2nd hand copy of Prices' book as it is long out of print

in the Lela Presse BA series (Batailles Aériennes - Air Battles) Jean-Louis Roba has just started an overview of raids on the UK. This first volume of " LE BLITZ : La Luftwaffe sur les Îles Britaniques (1ére partie : du 1er janvier au 31 mars 1941) " covers the period 1 Jan to 31 March 1941. Great info and photos and artwork (Dekker). There's a pdf extract on the web site here

Thanks! That pdf looks great and will also revive my schoolboy French!

Very surprised no one's mentioned the exemplary 3 volumes of After The Battle's The Blitz Then and Now! Admittedly, it's getting a bit long in the tooth, but the detail is extremely useful, on a day-by-day basis, with thousands of great rare photos.

I believe that Mongoose is interested in Blitz/night raids which are not covered by these books

That's correct and just got Chris's and Price's books. The former looks very useful in particular and will keep me busy for a bit. Price is also interesting for other details.
