The Flower class is probably the best documented of the Royal Navy's WWII ships. There's something about these pug ugly little boats that people love.
The Shipcraft books looks interesting but the information could just as easily gained from a number of other sources.
Warship Perspectives
Flower Class Corvettes of World War Two
by John Lambert
Anatomy of the ship: The Flower Class Corvette Agassiz
by John McKay & John Harland

the Anatomy is about the best as a lot of the information in the others are the same drawings. a serious Flower modeller needs to see and if possible own these 2.
