I have written/co-written 9 books of various types on the Messerschmitt 110. This is the second time that one has gone to a second edition. Here's the covers of the others: And this is the first edition (1995) of the one to be published in a couple of weeks time:

1. I don't think so. 2. A German edition would be up to the publisher. 3. I leave sales figures to the publishers. The above comments are not intended to be flippant. I just pass the completed work(s) to the publisher, and do a final proof-read when the .pdfs come through to me. Then it's...
