Re: British pilot memoirs

"Night Fighter" by C.F. Rawnsley & Robert Wright (Crécy Pubishing, 1998) ISBN 0 907579 67 1.

The author visited Germany often in te inter-war period and saw how ugly things were getting, he then joined the RAF in 1936 and flew as a Navigator/Radar Operator (Cunningham was his pilot) right from the earliest days.

Because night fighting was a fairly small circle of people, he knew many of the most important figures and the book gives a good picture of night fighting development overall as well as the author's vivid persoanl experiences. (And it's only £5.99 in paperback).
