WWII K9 History & Equipment
16 April 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Like most Schiffer publications "U.S. Military War Dogs in World War II: A History and Collector's Guide" by Robert Rosenkrans is a beautifully bound hardcover coffee table formatted book extensively illustrated with various photography on quality paper. The intent of this book is to aid collectives and historians in identifying United States government issued military working dog equipment and paraphernalia. This is accomplished throughout the book with numerous color, black and white photography which for the collector is very important as most of the items displayed within this book are very scarce and collectible, as well is very expensive. I will say that I am not a collector of war dog paraphernalia; however I am very interested in the history, training, employment and operations of the military working dog in World War II. And in this realm this book has not failed me, it has provided me with a lot of information I was unaware of prior to reading this book.
