There are numerous examples, many of which are private. For more open discussions and expressions of regret I'd recommend such books as Miles Tripp's famous 'The Eighth Passenger' ( which, as it was first published in 1969, cannot be dismissed as the regrets of an old man ). In the same vein is the more recent 'Dresden And The Heavy Bombers' by Frank Musgrove and of course, the collection 'Why Dresden?' published in 2001 by The Dresden Trust.
