This review is from: Trucks of the Wehrmacht (German Vehicles in World War II) (Hardcover)

This book covers the Wehrmacht supply organization and the trucks used within the German military during WWII. There are hundreds of photos detailing domestic, foreign, and captured types. There are also other sections, such as marking and painting. As a modeler, this book was very helpful to me as far as technical details and illustrating numberous types and uses.

This review is from: Trucks of the Wehrmacht (German Vehicles in World War II) (Hardcover)

This is by far the best book on German trucks of WW II that I have ever seen (and I've seen a lot). It has fantastic coverage of the vast range of trucks used by the Wehrmacht, including foreign makes captured or procured by other means. It includes hundreds of excellent photos and individual sections on the various manufacturers, many of which are not covered at all by other publications.

This should not be confused with the many knock-offs that abound in the market. This is not a repeat of obsolete, inaccurate, and often dead wrong material from old tech manuals and other sources, but is fresh, seldom seen, up-to-date material.

If you only have one book on Wehrmacht trucks, then this should be the one!!

This is one neat book, especially at the price a number of used-book retailers list! Highly recommended for military modelers looking for diorama ideas and further inspiration.
