Hmmm, I'm eager to read it myself and see how accurate it is regarding the 91/92.

*Looks* like it has the potential to be awesome going by the website.

Damn tho, $69, really?! An excellent hardbound with dust cover should be $59 TOPS. I'll still buy it but damn...

I have book number 28. Its worth at least 100 bucks, there is sooo much info in it about the Hawks. There are a few boo boos on 3rdgen pic labels but it may be fixed next go around. (I have talked with the author about a lot of things b4 and during the final stages)

Awesome, great to know there is some collaboration with someone else in the "know". Too bad it did not occur prior to publishing.

When I was working with Marc Cranswick on his book my cars were in, he did a great job taking really important details I mentioned to him and incorporating them into his book. Even down to the captions for the pictures.

I'll bookmark the site and keep an eye out for a revised edition in the future!

Re: another book- "Firehawk the fiercest of the firebirds"

Hi Guys,

Book is still around for anyone interested. Print run was 1,000 and about 720 are gone. Price is $49.99 which includes shipping. A 3.5 lb coffee table book is expensive to ship.

www.firehawkbook.com

Tony - Sorry about any errors. Lord knows I read over the drafts umpteen times. Always more to learn these cars.
