The Kraus book you're probably referring to is, I believe, "Big Ear",
which I don't have, but have heard about. Among his other books, Kraus'
_Electromagnetics_ is one of my most-used texts on that subject.

For antenna books on specialized topics like log periodics, you might
check Artech House.

Thanks for the correction on "Jasik", my fingers get dyslectic.
I agree with Roy below, it is like a survey book, not as deep math wise as
it could go, then some good sections. Usally It or Krause have something on
an antenna.
Krause has another "book" out, on astromonical antennas, (about 1958?) not a
hardback, and was sold in the back of Sky and Telescope magazine a few years
ago. Excellent book, I cant find it right now, I think it was Astrominical
Antennas, some discussion of the giant antennas he built on campus. Not
amateur radio stuff.

I would like to find a good antenna book on Log periodic below 1 GHz. I
have other antenna books in microwave region, most are all math, waveguides,
feedhorns and so on. But a lot of it scales.
