Signal,
By Mike Nelson (San Diego) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Their War: German Combat Photographs From The Archives Of Signal Magazine (Hardcover)
This is a great book detailing the rise and fall of the German forces in WWII. It has over 200 photos (several pages in color) of the German army on all fronts. Theres photos of battles, POWs (german,russian,american,british), air combat, destroyed tanks, infantry, and just about everything else. This isnt a picture book, it has a good share of text, but the majority is pictures.

short on color photos,
This review is from: Their War: German Combat Photographs From The Archives Of Signal Magazine (Hardcover)
I bought this book expecting to find many, if not all of the SIGNAL magazine color combat photos, for which they are best known, under one roof. However, there are only a few pages of color photos. In addition, the B&W photos are quite grainy and of only fair quality - I think partly due to the paper used. The color photos are good quality. There is a significant amount of text, which is OK by me, but be aware if you are expecting a photo album book. More numerous and better quality photos are available in other books but at a higher price of course. The price on this book is fairly low and reflective of what you're getting.

I expected better,
By James D. Crabtree "Doc Crabtree" (Fort Leavenworth, Kansas) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Their War: German Combat Photographs From The Archives Of Signal Magazine (Hardcover)
There should have been better photos with this product, considering a lot of the Signal photography I have seen in the past. Also, the information about the way the propaganda companies collected their products didn't really do them justice. Overall, I thought it failed to deliver.
