Title: Ultimate quick-reference source for WWII American militaria!
Review: The amount of detailed information, photographs, variations and minutiae on American military issue items from 1900-1945 could likely fill an entire room. The beauty of Lewis' book is that it succeeds as a reasonably thorough quick-reference guide for the major items of clothing and issue gear for the U.S. soldier from 1900-1945. Highly recommended for beginner and "expert" alike. Handy reference for dating, placing items in your collection or on auction. As stated in previous reviews, do not buy for specific areas - you will not find exhaustive treatment of any one item, but neither is this a cursory "quick buck" hash you will find on the discount aisle. Color photos would have helped, but probably made the price even more prohibitive. Very well worth the price. Recommended!
