Never saw a book on the FW. That said, they did do books on their 1/48 scale deHavilland Mosquito and the 1/72 scale Avro Lancaster. Both very nice, by the way.

There never was a FW190 book. If I recall correctly there are 8 in total, the final 3 being the Lancaster, Mosquito and B17.,

Well that would explain finding the Mosq, the Lanc and the B-17 and not the FW.
Thanks guys!

These books were not just to accompany the 1/24 kits. There is at least one volume for 1/72 as well - the Lancaster.
