"""The drawings and color profiles will prove invaluable to the modeler. It is hard to find any disparaging comments on the book. I loved if from the beginning to the end. It is not just a rehash of old photos, there are plenty of new material in there to keep most happy.""-- ""IPMS/USA"" ''This rather weighty tome provides an excellent reference for the various models of Focke-Wulf 190, and all in one spot. Following an introduction with a telling of the inspiration that gave designer Kurt Tank the ideas for the aircraft, the book launches into the design and development of the prototypes. The detail in this and each chapter is phenomenal, with virtually every page containing at least one photograph relevant to the text. If you can forgive the occasional poor English (far better than my Polish!), this is the ideal reference book for the Focke-Wulf 190, containing plenty of images and scale drawings for the historian and model-maker. Recommended.'' -- ""MAFVA"" ""This book is one of the best I've read on the aircraft...a 'must have' book for the enthusiast...""-- ""ModelingMadness.Com"""
