Early favourites in my library:
Tattered Battlements – first published anonymously in 1943 by “A Fighter Pilot”
but republished with additions by W/C HAS “Tim” Johnston in 1985
Spitfires over Malta by Paul Brennan and Ray Hesslyn – another wartime publication
One Man’s Window by Denis Barnham- written from a wartime diary with drawings by the author
Hess – A Kiwi Spitfire Ace by James Sutherland has a large section on Malta and draws much from Spitfires over Malta.
Canadian pilots on Malta get a deal of coverage in All the Fine young Eagles by David L Bashow.
There’s a Malta Museum site with some good links. Also a good reading list at
