Good,
By
This review is from: The SA 1921-45 : Hitler's Stormtroopers (Men-At Arms Series, 220) (Paperback)
A good overall look at the SA, with a basic history of the organization and some eye-opening facts and figures (as the history of the SA is traced all the way through 1945 - far from fading into obscurity after the death of Roehm in 1934), with equal time presented to "Evolution of the SA Uniform" (which includes insignia), history, and a description of sub-organizations.Would have benefited from full colour treatment of the insignia sections, but that would have taken away from the lovely full colour plates by Volstad. Insignia portions of the text are well done, with physical descriptions accompanied by regulations for such things as long-service chevrons and stripes - good overall look at this very complicated subject. Many details of insignia given, another example are the summaries of collar patches and piping, which describe the abbreviations worn on the patches and which districts they correspond to. Good look at history and organization, with special emphasis placed on uniforms.

DATE AND COVER CONFUSION,

This review is from: The SA 1921-45 : Hitler's Stormtroopers (Men-At Arms Series, 220) (Paperback)
The Cover shown [I have and sell this book] is the newest 1999 cover not the 1990 cover. I believe the illustrator had changed as well.TECHNICALLY THIS BOOK SHOULD HAVE BEEN ISSUED A NEW ISBN NUMBER BY ISBN RULES 4 stars not 5 due to Publisher Obfuscation |
