Dear all,
On 1 October, the latest "Verlag Militaria" book on WW1 will be available:
The German Mountain Troops in the First World War. History, Uniforms and Equipment from 1914 to 1918
by Dr. Alexander Jordan (Director of the Wehrgeschichtliches Museum Rastatt).
Illustrated in colour, 540 pages, 1000 colour photographs, contemporary B&W photographs, tables and illustrations, hard cover bound with dust cover, large format: 29.5 x 26 cm
Price: € 99.-
Some sample pages here:
(...and the direct link to the publishers website with more info).
As I was marginally involved with the English version, I have already read it and seen the images - I was really impressed by the amount of well-researched information on these early German mountain units, the rare contemporary photos and the many original uniforms and equipment presented.
Highly recommended.
Karl
