G.I. COLLECTOR’S GUIDE, VOLUME 2 HP Enjames
After the release of Volume 1, many readers and collectors pointed out several pieces they possessed which were missing from the book. Although including each and every item issued to the American soldier is a near impossible goal, the author started making a list of what should included in a second volume.
All chapters from volume 1 have been revised and updated (among others: uniforms, signal and medical equipment) and new sections have been added, including personal equipment, Stateside training, and the life of POWs in German camps.
More than 1,000 new artifacts with detailed captions are featured in this completely revised new work. Volume 2 of the G.I. Collector’s Guide provides a complete and unequaled source of American ground force documentation for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
NOTE FROM CASEMATE: We have had several questions regarding the content in Volume 1 and Volume 2. Casemate wants you to know that Volume 2 contains completely original material not previously seen in Volume 1.
