WWII and/or aviation
My husband would like some recommendations. His favorite author is Paul Brickhill (The Great Escape, Reach For the Sky, etc.) He also said he likes W.E. Johns and Robert Westall, although those might have been authors of books he read when he was a kid. He's Australian and is very interested in WWII stories with an Australian or British hero, though I imagine he'd like anything, particularly if there are airplanes involved (especially Spitfires and Mosquitoes.) He's currently reading a non-fiction book called Down to Earth, about a WWII Mosquito pilot, but he likes the idea of some fiction books similar to those by Paul Brickhill.
I'm hoping someone here has similar tastes and an idea of what he might like.
