Good idea. Other than the three (all from Dutch authors) mentioned previously, I can advise the three from Alfred Price (18 August 1940, 15 September 1940 & 6 March 1944) and The Nuremberg Raid: 30-31 March 1944 (I have yet to read The Schweinfurt-Regensburg Mission: The American Raids on 17 August 1943 and Peenemunde Raid: The Night of 17-18 August 1943).

I have also read Operation Oyster World War II's Forgotten Raid: The Daring Low Level Attack on the Philips Radio Works but I can't say it made a lasting impression on me.

There are also The Battle of Heligoland Bight 1939: the Royal Air Force and the Luftwaffe's baptism of fire (18 December 1939), Battle Under the Moon (3-4 May 1994), Mighty by Sacrifice: The Destruction of an American Bomber Squadron, August 29, 1944, The Kassel Raid, 27 September 1944: The Largest Loss by Usaaf Group on Any Mission in WWII and Hitler's Last Christmas: The Day the Entire Mighty 8th Air Force Entered the Battle of the Bulge (24 December 1944) for which I would welcome any review.

There also books about the Ploesti raid on 1st of August 1944, the Augsburg raid (17 April 1942), the Doolittle raid of 18 April 1942,... and I also can name a few in French on Allied missions over France.
