Another conflict in the book is some photos are captioned as B-2s, yet on pg 42 they state the B-1 was the only version produced.

All documentation by Messerschmitt on the 109B calls it only that, 109B, with no sub-types noted. I have a feeling that the B-1 and B-2 sub-types are postwar inventions. And this may have been created because of uncertainty over the differences between the 109A and the 109B.
And thanks, Net Sailor, for that excellent breakdown of the different comments on the number of 109s in Spain.
