Gavin Lyall’s non-fiction reflects his military background. Freedom’s Battle (1971) is an anthology of first-hand accounts from RAF and Commonwealth aircrew during World War II. A second volume followed decades later in 2011.
Operation Warboard (1972), co-written with his brother Bernard Lyall, is a guide to recreating WWII battles as tabletop wargames in 20-25mm scale. It covers rules for command, communication, air power, and operations in desert and snow conditions.
