About this title

Review:

An absolute mine of information. The book itself is quite substantial. The content is in a class of its own. The photographs are excellent. The information in the text is in depth and very detailed. Although the price appears to be rather steep, the book itself warrants this as it compares with having your own personal specalist at your side whilst you are reading it. I cannot wait for the other publications in this series, --By A. Wass

This is a fabulous book. It tells me so much about World War 1 equipment and uniforms. It has been fun and interesting learning about world war 1 uniforms. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK --By Justincase

. The color work is out of this world and the equipment is great too. --By William B Hines
