This review is from: British Army Handbook 1939-1945 (Hardcover)
A good reference source for the British Army at the height of its glory in WW2. Covers the organizational history of the British Army during WW2. The book not only covers the more well known aspects of the Britich Army but covers the lesser known parts of the Combat Service and Combat Service Suppport elements.

A good companion volume to the US Army Handbook that also covers WW2.

A must read for many wargamers and a should read for all WW2 Histary buffs.

But the text is very light on hard statistical data, relying more on broad generalisations through creative descriptions with little in the way of hard statistical data. If you are looking to read about the British army in World War II this is the book for you, but if your looking for a book with facts and figures such as notes on equipment, weapons, vehicles, etc - then this is not the book for you.
