This review is from: Field Uniforms of Germany's Panzer Elite (Hardcover)

Those who purchased Pruett and Edwards' "Field Uniforms of German Army Panzer Forces in WWII" will be familiar with the comprehensive nature of this title. In this volume, they cover the "everything else" uniforms of the German armed forces such as the Waffen SS, Afrika Korps and Hermann Goring formations. A wealth of contemporary photographs is supplemented by a color section that features uniforms and insignia owned by collectors. The authors include information that allows one to accurately date the appearance of a particular uniform or feature, and this is backed up by footnoted references. This book is an excellent reference tool for memorabilia collectors, figure painters and anyone who is interested in German uniforms of the Second World War.
