Looking for the book with the best information by way of maps and information on the raid.

Alan did you find MW 34? I looked through my collection and I had 31 and 35 but not 34.

Yes, I did find #34. As mentioned in my posting of 28 November, there are some aspects I think need clarified and was trying to contact the author, but without success so far.

Is the Osprey Raid book useful for the attacks themselves? My interest is specifically in the actual attacks in order to game them,rather than the development of the bomb, training etc.?

GMT's game Enemy Coast Ahead The Dambuster Raid, while not exactly a "book" is packed with historical information. Even detail on the crews for each Lancaster.
