Thank you, i will try and get a copy at the nuphilex show in march.

U. S. Paper Money Guide and Handbook, by Carlson R. Chambliss, is a good book, with lots of background information and collector experience and knowledge that you wouldn't find in catalogues.  Hard Cover, BNR Press, 1999, 480 pages which includes some advertising.

does it include Federal reserve notes to date?

There is a chapter devoted to FRN's (Ch. 4) but since it was published 5 years ago, it won't include the latest issues.

The one I have has the 2004 coloured $20 but not the 2004 coloured $50.
