Osprey Modelling Manuals 17 : Messerschmitt Bf 109

This book covers the standard Luftwaffe single-seat fighter of the early years of World War 2, the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the mount of aces such as Adolf Galland and Werner Mölders. With detailed step-by-step model photography, specially commissioned walkround photography, scale drawings and wartime shots, this book provides all the details needed to model the Bf109E 'Emil' - and other variants, particularly the 'Gustav', the most numerous of all Bf 109 types, and the strange double-deck Mistel.
