The Visual Astronomer's Photographic Guide to the Deep Sky
I know it's not catchy, but does do exactly what it says on the tin. The book shows you what you will actually see through the eyepiece. So there aren't any processed images or long exposures. It contains photos of the visual view of loads of DSOs. Most DSOs have two photos with different sized 'scopes so that you can compare the views with a scope of similar size to your own.
Anyway, here's a link to Amazon:

It's not cheap, but hopefully it's worth it!!:)
