You have to really enjoy this subject to find value in this book. Overall the author did a good job, although I would have liked to have more background on some of the topics. I have found the book to be a good guide while visiting WW 2 museums that have uniform collections.

Very thorough, very detailed, plenty of pictures. Indispensible if you are more than casually interested in the subject.

This book was published 40 years ago. There are only a few color sections, such as bayonet knots, should patches and a couple of camouflage patterns. The rest are all black and white photos with some line drawings. There is solid information here and you will find some interesting photographs. I still give it four stars despite its lack of color pictures of uniforms and equipment. The book is that good.

This oldie but still relevant book on German Army Uniforms continues to stand the test of time. The context and relevance of various items of equipment and insignia worn with the uniforms is clearly indicated and backed by good pictures and diagrams.

I was hoping to get color photos of proud German soldiers in their uniforms but they're all black and white which, needless to say is uninspiring to read.
Otherwise, it's well-written and the black and white photos do an ok job of depicting the uniforms.

It the bible......of course it gets 5 stars. It is a beautiful bible and well taken care of for the age. No writing or torn pages. Now for me to start my notes in it and get my religion on.
