An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Uniforms of World War II: An Expert Guide To The Uniforms Of Britain, America, Germany, Ussr And Japan, Together With Other Axis And Allied Forces (Military Uniforms)

Fantastic book. The illustrations are top notch -- and while there are plenty of them, this book is 80% information, 20% illustrations. Perhaps 70/30. Uniforms are not only covered factually, but the "why's" of the uniform choices are as well. On top of that, the first 30 pages or so of the book is rich in background info on WWI. Nothing you don't already know if you're a history buff, but interesting nonetheless. I would have paid 10-20 dollars more for this if I had to, it's honestly that good!

Great pics, a very good guide for historic purposes

Purchased as a gift for an avid diorama builder to use as reference for his intrinsically detailed dioramas.

An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Uniforms of World War II: This is a very well-illustrated, interesting read. I'm not a uniform enthusiast. But figures are often included in my 1/48 model airplane kits. This book is ideal for me to paint the figures to be reasonably accurate and presentable.

I have every title in this series. Excellent artwork that is consistent in each book. I'm a huge fan of the Osprey' Men at War and Elite books but sometimes the artwork isn't as good as I expected. I'm a scale modeler of military figures (1/72 and 1/35 scale) and it's been invaluable. I've been waiting for this publisher to come out with new titles, maybe some more modern uniforms (Vietnam, Gulf War, GWO) I'd pre-buy them.

This is a beautifully crafted and informative book for historians and artists alike. In general it's both a visually and historically accurate book that can enjoyed own it's on. I purchased it as a reference for my artwork and it exceeded my expectations. Great stuff.

I'm a figure builder/painter and this is a nice book to thumb through for references and inspiration.

Great illustrations and a must for the enthusiast/historian that loves this genre of World History.

Buen libro con excelente material de consulta.

The media could not be loaded. Realmente o livro é muito bem feito é show muitas fotos e bem explicativo.

Libro ricchissimo di foto e dettagli, molto appassionante.

Li he posat 5 estrelles, encara que va arribar lleugerament deteriorat, ja que és una eina vital per al modelisme.Documentació gràfica en color molt completa de les principals unitats de tots els països intervinents a la WW2.Estic preparant alguns diorames a escala 1/35 i m'ha servit per aclarir alguns dubtes de com pintar algunes unitats.No és un llibre de modelisme, no conté referències numerades dels colors, però jo no sóc un professional del modelisme, per tant amb la informació gràfica representada ja entinc prou.

Es hieß zwar, der Artikel sei neu, ich erhielt ihn aber nur in einem völlig zerknitterten Zustand mit eingedrücktem Einband und so weiter. Allerdings ist das wahrscheinlich erst während der Lieferung passiert.
