Another outstanding book by Mr. Rottman, It brought back memories of some of the junk that I use to have to hump back about 100 pounds ago. Good to go!

Superficial Study,
By El Cutachero (MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: U.S. Army Combat Equipments, 1910-1988 (Men-At-Arms Series, 205) (Paperback)
I have had this book for many years. Every paragraph is marked up with some error of interpretation or fact. I see no evidence that the author consulted an article that I wrote thirty some years ago on the development of infantry equipment. And he is careless with the proper nomenclature. He uses jargon such as "product improved", a modern term, which is not relevent to the period and was never used in the period 1910 to very recently.The author simply did not do enough research nor understand what he read. The subject is simply too vast to cover in such a short format. But the illustrations are excellent, it is just the text that I cannot recommend. |
