I have not seen this posted here, so...

Moton's Books (UK) has announced "Messerschmitt Me 309 Development & Politics", By Dan Sharp & Calum E Douglas, 200-page hardcover, due in October.

Details are here, including taking pre-orders...

MESSERSCHMITT ME 309 DEVELOPMENT & POLITICS | Mortons Books

Book : Messerschmitt Me 309 Development & Politics

www.mortonsbooks.co.uk

I heard earlier this book may be coming from a different publisher, but looks like Morton's is it, and they boldly include a date.

I'm truly looking forward to this, I've long wanted to know more about the 309, beyond the same 5-6 photos we've all seen dozens of times, and the summary that since it wasn't much better than the current 109G, they cancelled it. The title clearly implies political manipulations and it will be good to read the real back story. Looking forward to the book!

@Calum / Dan - Can you share any other comments on the contents??

Thanks for heads up on that - looks like it is now a December book and Morton's are too expensive on shipping so I looked up Amazon Aus and then Amazon US - I am getting mine from the US. Like the kindle books recently the US price is far better than the non US price.

Amazon Australia $120.57 - Morton's is cheaper, even with the high postage

Amazon USA US$28.74 = AU$44.55 plus postage etc totalled AU$75.05

Booktopia Aus has it for $76.25 plus shipping

Anyone know what is going on with this book?
First to be delivered early November - then late December - early Jan - late Feb - now April.

Has it been printed in Singapore/China and hit by shipping difficulties?
