ISBN 2908182629, H+C $39.95
This is a collection of some of the best unpublished photos of WW2 German Para's ever to see print. It is not a generic overall history of German Paratroopers- but a collection of very rare and esoteric shots for the advanced collector. Most of them come directly from the veteran, and include some of their wartime stories. B+W only. But a must if you are interested in these guys. .Order it here
by Militaria Magazine Staff
ISBN 2908182297, H+C $29.95
This is a collection of the gorgeous color reconstructions of authentic wartime uniforms and equipment. Each two page spread shows all the items that would be worn or carried by an individual. This technique was pioneered by the outstanding Militaria Magazine, and soon copied by others. These are most of the German reconstructions from the first 100 issues. The first printing rapidly sold out, and is finally back in print. What's nice about this book si that is a a very good starter book on German WW2 uniforms, but advanced collectors will find new items of interest in it. .Order it here
