A Lacroix and Wells IJN DD Book?

[Sean Hert]

Has anyone heard if this book is a really happening, or just a fanboy dream?

[Foeth]

I heard that question before, but even on j-aircraft I haven't seen anything more than that. Would be nice though, even with all the data on Japanese destroyers available.

Several years ago, Jon Parshall had been in touch with Mr. Wells and it seemed that the DD book was the next project. No word since then.

There was also this, in the October 2002 edition of the International Journal of Naval History:

A Private Request for Research Assistance

[Laurence Batchelor]

There has been a certain English author over in Japan for a while doing research on IJN destroyers perhaps he might be a co-author of Lacroix & Wells as I have also heard they have another IJN tome in the works
