| <br/> Sometime ago one of our members was looking for a book titled:<br/> &quot;Aviation in Northamptonshire&quot; an Illustrated History&quot;.<br/> <br/> I did a quick search online from a rare and out of print book dealer and found that this book is available from $10.00 to almost $100.00, it depends on whether you want a first edition and who you order it from. I happened to use Abebooks at:  www.abebooks.com, as I have used them before. I bought the $10.00 copy and there are others available.<br/> <br/> Another member was looking for Glider information from the 401st. Ebay has a book listed right now on this very information for those who may be interested:<br/> <br/> eBay: SKYRIDERS: HISTORY OF THE 327/401ST GLIDER INFANTRY (item 4515461576 end time Sep-24-05 14:39:44 PDT) I hope this helps those of you who were looking for these books and information.<br/> <br/> Jackie <br/> <br/> <br/>

| The 401st glider book is about an Army unit with the same number.  It has nothing to do with the 401st Bomb Group.<br/>

| Aviation in Northamptonshire is a nice coffee-table size Illustrated History of flight in the Shire, by Michael L. Gibson, Pub. 1982, Northamptonshire Libraries,  360pp;  ISBN 0-905391-08-X.<br/> <br/> Deenethorpe activity, before, during(401BG)and after WWII is described in a part of the book - the rest of the book is devoted to flight history in other parts of the Shire. <br/> <br/> I'd have to look to see what the original marked price was for the book (in U.K. 'pounds'Sterling), but $10.00 seems like a 'real steal' - it seems to me that when new, the price was around 15-pounds.<br/> <br/> <br/>  <br/> <br/> <br/>
