Product Description

For many years, military historians and artists, collectors of militaria, war-gamers and war enthusiasts in general have felt the need for a comprehensive record of the uniforms, insignia and organization of the fighting men of World War II. This volume is intended to provide such a record. Military historian Andrew Mollo's text details not only the design of uniforms and insignia, but also describes their effectiveness in the field and how this affected the fighting ability of the troops themselves. A series of 350 colour drawings has been specially commissioned for the book. These are supported by 160 photographs of the combatants in action, along with 53 plates of insignia.

Andrew Mollo is one of Britain's best known military historians; he has written twelve books on military uniforms, including German Uniforms of World War II. He has acted as technical advisor on the films Dr Zhivago, Night of the Generals and The Spy who came in from the Cold.
