I got "The Last Blitz" when it came out and there was a lot in there but in reading it I remember feeling a bit dissatisfied overall, that there was more to explore. Personally, I'd like to find more about German efforts to jam British radar but one National Archives file is 'unavailable (fragile or in need of repair) … requires treatment for mould' and while I found the interim report on the
Kettenhund jammer I've never found the final one.
Another dimension that I've happened on more recently is the high-level discussion in the Luftwaffe (memos in various Bundesarchiv files) about how much of a future the bomber arm still had in 1944 given the supply of replacement crews and the lack of new aircraft types coming through — and that's before the fuel started to run out.
