I OWN SEVERAL BOOKS ON THE SUBJECT OF LUGERS AND HAVE FOUND THIS BOOK TO BE AN ASSET TO THE NOVICE AS WELL AS THE SEASONED COLLECTOR. THE BOOK PROVIDES THE BASIC INFORMATION TO BEGIN YOUR SEARCH IN THIS SOMETIMES CONFUSING AREA OF COLLECTING. WITH OVER 300 VARIETIES AND MODELS TO CHOOSE FROM THE BOOK CAUTIONS THE COLLECTOR TO SPECIALIZE IN A PARTICULAR AREA AS TO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN THE "TOTAL COLLECTION MENTALITY. THE BOOK TAKES THE BASIC MODELS AND THROUGH TEXT AND PICTURES ON THE JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME IN COLLECTING LUGERS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANY COLLECTOR SERIOUS OR NOVICE

This 120 page paperback does a pretty good job at giving descriptions and adequate photographs of the various Lugers in the market today... even the newer Mauser Lugers imported by Interarms in the 1970s. Magazines (clips), stocks, holsters and even .22 caliber conversion kits are covered. The quantity manufactured of each type of Luger is included along with the detailed descriptions.

There is a section detailing values and "collector-recommendation comments" too.

Overall, I found the book helpful... and I would emphasize, the photos were well done.

Concise, Informative, especially for novice to Luger. Written for collector. I would have liked to see a chapter on mechanics of the piece.Delivery of the book was prompt. Packaging was excellent.
