This review is from: The Armed Forces of World War II: Uniforms, Insignia and Organization (Hardcover)
I first bought this book about 15 years ago. It made a huge impression on me then when I didn't know much about uniforms, and it is still a great resource today now that I am a uniform collector. The painted images of soldiers of all the major armies of World War II are vivid and interesting. The text is informative and thorough. Of particular use are charts that detail rank insignia for all the various armies.

This review is from: The Armed Forces of World War II: Uniforms, Insignia and Organization (Hardcover)
This is the DEFINITIVE reference book on the uniforms of WWII. Mollo carefully explains his terms and illustrates them in this handy, well-organized work. Individual illustrations of patches, epaulets and weapons are complemented by contemporary, hand-colored photographs of a wide variety of uniforms. Excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars ULTIMATE REFERENCE ON WW II ARMED FORCES, December 5, 2011
This review is from: The Armed Forces of World War II: Uniforms, Insignia and Organization (Hardcover)
This magnificent book not only illustrates the uniforms and accoutrements of all major armed forces (and then some) involved in this great conflict, but it also breaks down the various armies in general, their organizational structures, facts and figures, and to supplement the wonderful color artwork are many black and white photographs capturing the period. This is one work that is hard to put down!!!!!
