For a long time the Fairchild C-119 had my (RL) special interest, for there was little in print.
Now (2025) Simon D. Beck has published a book after many years of research!
"Hope you might post a few pictures of my new book on the C-119, which covers the full histories of all 1.185 Boxcars built. Something many people have been looking for. It is available in print or as an e-book at Amazon and most other online book websites or from the publisher at McFarland. Google searches easily bring up any shopping site."

While I have not seen a copy in print it seems the real deal, finally! A copy was given to me by a friend later.
