They actually addressed that at the end of Ep III. Where he says he is going to train Obi-wan to communion with Qui-Gon in the Netherworld. Or some such junk.

George didn't write the books so if a book contradicts a movie.. the book is WRONG.

The part where Obi Wan was talking to Luke and said something along the lines of, "When I first met your father he was already the finest starpilot in the galaxy."

Let's roll, that's a good trick.

INTERIOR: KENOBI'S DWELLING.

The small, spartan hovel is cluttered with desert junk but
still manages to radiate an air of time-worn comfort and
security. Luke is in one corner repairing Threepio's arm, as
old Ben sits thinking.

LUKE: No, my father didn't fight in the wars. He was a navigator on a
spice freighter.

BEN: That's what your uncle told you. He didn't hold with your
father's ideals. Thought he should have stayed here and not gotten
involved.

LUKE: You fought in the Clone Wars?

BEN: Yes, I was once a Jedi Knight the same as your father.

LUKE: I wish I'd known him.

BEN: He was the best star-pilot in the galaxy, and a cunning warrior.
I understand you've become quite a good pilot yourself. And he was a
good friend. Which reminds me...

i think he's refering to this part in rotj:

BEN
When I first knew him, your father was
already a great pilot. But I was amazed how
strongly the Force was with him. I took it
upon myself to train him as a Jedi. I
thought that I could instruct him just as
well as Yoda. I was wrong. My pride has
had terrible consequences for the galaxy.

that isn't incongruous. the little kid was a great pilot.


the really incogruous part is:

LUKE
Leia... do you remember your mother? Your
real mother?

LEIA
Just a little bit. She died when I was very
young.

LUKE
What do you remember?

LEIA
Just...images, really. Feelings.

LUKE
Tell me.

LEIA
(a little surprised at his insistence)
She was very beautiful. Kind, but...sad.
(looks up) Why are you asking me all this?

Yes it is. In Episode II, Jango Fett calls him Boba.

Yoda taught lightsaber training to younglings in Episode II, it would be reasonable to assume that all Jedi have more than one teacher at some point, including Obi-Wan.

Well 'very young' is open to interpretation. Also, because she's the child of a Jedi (and likely somewhat force sensitive because of it) there's no telling what kind of connection she would have made with her mother, even from the womb.

the 'books' have never been released to the general public, so how can we know?

Did Leia know she was adopted before Luke dropped the news on her?

From the way Luke phrases the question and her lack of suprise about why he would say "real mother", I assume that she did know. Organa couldn't keep the fact that he adopted a baby a secret, only who she was.
