Re: Looking for recommendations on books on the air war against Reich oil production
Richard,
I would suggest:

Targetting the Third Reich: Air Intelligence and the Allied Bombing Campaigns. by Robert S Ehlers, Jr. University Press of Kansas. 2009. Covers the war 1939-45. 350 pages of text, 48 pages of footnote text, 7 pages of bibliography.

I found it excellent. A very good description of the background of the oil and transportation campaigns, and the positive impact of the one upon the other. Covers Bomber Command, 8th and 15th Air Forces, with emphasis on BC and 8thAF.

Enjjoy!

Frank.
