Images not good enough

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 23 July 2015

As far as I know there is no other book on this subject: for that reason - 3 stars. However, the photographs could have been better quality. If you are going to produce the only book on a subject, you should make it the best it can be. Maybe there's a gap in the market for a rival...

Utterly Boring

Makes a great non PC gift even though it is pretty dull. Nazi spoons all look the same.

Just WOW!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 22 March 2011

This is truly a masterpiece. At points I had to restrict my burgeoning semi from bursting into a fully fledged wife-botherer. Yannes' gentle introduction to the world of niche Nazi cutlery has the skilfully written veneer of an expert, nay a genius, who clearly has too much time on his hands and little, if any, actual human contact. Indeed, the author's tempestuous soul is reflected in his work, shining through with descriptions of spoons which are of such intricacy and beauty that I am left shocked and appalled that the tome has yet to stand proudly on every bookshelf in the land.

If you are bored of train-spotting and desperately searching for the next pointless past-time to fill the massive expanse of time before you crawl cold and alone into your final and welcome breaths then this is the book for you.

Alas I must end on a tiny gripe which justifies my unfortunate award of four stars to Mr Yannes. The sole criticism one can find to inflict upon this work would be that it is too short for any true Asperger's sufferer to fully enjoy.

Otherwise a pleasant read and I wait with anticipation for the sequels (known by true fans simply as Forks and Knives) which cannot come soon enough. Please contact the History Channel and beg them to commission a television serialisation.

What a revelation!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 15 November 2013

At last, a book about the 3rd Reich that doesn't just concentrate on their questionable practices during the war, but instead reveals to the world their tireless work to bring the art of utensil embellishment to a wider audience. I read with a tear in my eye the chapter on Joseph Goebbels many sleepless nights attempting to etch Mein Kampf on a small sundae spoon, ultimately to no avail, and the fascinating but heated debate between Benno von Arent and Heinz Auerswald on the inclusion of sugar tongs in the spoon arsenal left me exhausted, but wanting more. I have not been able to put this book down, although this is largely due to my chronic arthritis, but I can heartily recommend it to any serious spatulologist.

An indispensable volume

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 October 2013

Having already purchased Mr Yannes' comprehensive "Guide to Third Reich Cutlery", I decided to invest in this more specialised volume. It is an indispensable guide for the more discerning collector of Nazi memorabilia. Say what you like about them, those National Socialists certainly knew a thing or two about spoons. My personal favourites are the Eagle's Nest novelty souvenir teaspoons. One can imagine visiting fascists, such as Benito Mussolini, the Mitford sisters and the Prince of Wales, returning home happily with a dozen of these in their overnight bags. One shudders to think how the course of the Second World War might have been altered if Herr Hitler had not decided to divert so much of Germany's industrial resources into the production of spoons. I look forward to further volumes from Mr Yannes - Egg Whisks of the Waffen SS, for example, or a Guide to Gestapo Kitchenware.
