Market research - 'Most Wanted' Luftwaffe books

[MW Giles]

What I would like most from a Lw perspective is a detailed operational history of the zerstörer units 1939-1945, preferably en-masse, but would accept individual unit histories.

If I get a second vote I would like a book, the equivalent of the AB title - The Squadrons of the Royal Air Force and Commonwealth, but covering Lw units - how they were formed, where they were based, what types they operated and when, a brief potted history of the unit and then what units it morphed into when its role changed or it disbanded.

Not too much to ask before Christmas 2022?

My only bugbear - histories that take 450 pages to get to the end of 1942 and then 20 pages to complete the path to 1945

You need to look a little bit harder, Martin...
