Re: Need assistance: Role of the Luftwaffe/Germany in the Battle of Britain?
An interesting book is "Luftwaffe: Strategy for Defeat" by Williamson Murray.
It explains a lot of things regarding the BoB seen from the German point of view. Williamson Murray, Ph.D. in military history and Professor Emeritus of the Ohio State University. I think you can cite him... |

And "The Most Dangerous Enemy" by Stephen Bungay which devotes a lot of space to Germany's lack of any coherent strategy in the Battle.

Re: Need assistance: Role of the Luftwaffe/Germany in the Battle of Britain?
I would add to your required reading list The Breaking Wave by Telford Taylor (Weidenfeld & Nicolson 1967) and, if you can get hold of a copy, The Rise & Fall of the German Air Force (1933 to 1945) a restricted Air Ministry 'Pamphlet' issued by Air Vice-Marshal Sir T.W. Elmhirst KBE, CB, AFC, the Assistant Chief of Air Staff (Intelligence) in 1948.
