In 1983, Mongram published no. 21 in their Close Up series: "Dornier 335". This was by Richard Smith and Eddie Creek and was a 32-page softback. Several years later, after these two authors had stopped writing for Monogram, Thomas Hitchcock put together the hardback you refer to and (IIRC) credited the authors as himself, Smith and Creek although those two had made no further input. Presumably some of the 1983 material was reused in this later publication.
So while the specs might appear superficially similar, there is the crucial difference in authorship.
