I AM GOING TO REMOVE THE SET OF BOOKS FOR NOW. I NEED TO FIND OUT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THEM.

If anyone is planning a scratch build of the Young America, I have Ed Tosti's 3 Volume set plus Plans set in near perfect condition. Asking $250 shipped CONUSA. If any interest, please let me know.

Thanks for looking

Hi, could you show what Tosti wrote in these books? Are there some plans and sketches? What year were these published?
 
I believe you will find Tosti's extensive build log for Fair American, upon which his books are based, on Model Ship World forum. It's quite informative.
 
I am putting the Ed Tosti books back on sale. They need to get to a modeler who is considering this magnificent scratch build. It is the 3 books and the plans set for both 1:96 and 1:72 scale build. Reasonable offers considered.

After further checking, I am dropping the price to $200 shipped CONUSA. Each book has a CD associated with the build.

If you do buy the book, make sure and go to that MSW thread to download all the drawing revisions he posted there.
