Doesn't seem so. The link in the article to the publisher goes to a website that has this 'about us' which doesn't seem to tie in with an FF book..... Who We Are Spotlight Educational Support Center is a private limited company that was established in 2010 G.C. The company is registered with the Ethiopian government and is licensed to publish and distribute books as well as engage in consultancy and research in the area of education. Did a Google image search and the Rockpit article is the only instance of the cover online, so maybe never came to anything?

I've seen that before. Either on here or on the other message board. Maybe about a year ago, possibly less. But when I clicked on the link, I got precisely what 4th Chord got. There was an Australian element to it as well but I can't quite remember why.

The book itself isn't much to write home about, and the pictures have been poorly messed with, but there are some decent shots

I think it was intended as a Limited Edition run and why it had a hefty price tag, for what is essentially a magazine and DVD.
I have a copy of this publication. It's fairly comprehensive and everything in one place in terms of photos from specific tours... more photos than you can possibly shake a stick at! From Ma Kelly's to the End of the Road tour with Live Aid tagged on at the end. Combined with some facts and figures from each tour. Less emphasis on text generally, though there is a 7 page interview with Francis Rossi and a 2 page interview with John Coghlan. There is some rarities/bootleg stuff and tributes to Rick.
If looking at photos is your thing, then you won't be disappointed!
How many photos were genuinely 'unseen' at publication is hard to establish but to be fair there were certainly quite a number that I hadn't seen previously though I'm not obsessive these days in trying to hunt down every Quo related photo, clip or interview.
The DVD: In terms of previously unseen, I am not too sure about. Quoincidence will know more than I on this and the videos are possibly not as rare as they once were and probably some are out in the public domain.
The Colin Johnson interview 1975 Madrid video footage 1976 Bilzen video footage 1978 Brussels photos only, some given the 2D/3D treatment. 1979 Zevenaar video of fan club meet n' greet with Rick
Bonus: Hitkrand Awards: video footage of Francis and Rick and a bit of chat. 1981 On The Road: concert footage, behind the scenes and tour bus scenes. Interviews with Alan L, John C, Rick and Francis.
Think that's got it covered!
