The second volume of the Propaganda Photo Series, a unique series of books on World War II small arms. Each volume covers all essential information on history and development, ammunition and accessories, codes and markings and contains photos of nearly every model and accessory. The most important quality of the Propaganda Photo Series however, is a unique selection of original German World War II propaganda photos, most never published before. The combination of solid information and original photos makes the Propaganda Photo Series the most extensive and reliable source of German small arms "in-use", depicting the weapons and equipment as they were actually used. This book is the first detailed publication on the famous submachinegun that (under his incorrect nickname "Schmeisser") became a symbol of the Blitzkrieg as the favorite small arm of armored units and parachutists. But despite its fame, reliable information was until now very scarce. In this book, the history and development of the MP38, MP40 and MP41 are described for the first time. Moreover, several prototypes and rare variants are depicted, including the MP38(L) and the MP40/1 with dual feed system.

This book covers the SS from conception through to the end of WW2. Much of the commentary is of an extremely general nature, and few areas are addressed specifically. Every page contains a black and white photograph pertaining to the chapter, and all pictures are non offensive. All in all the book would not priovide anything new for those who have read other SS material, but on an introductory level the book is superb.

This fourteenth installment in the WARMACHINES series is the third of the special mini-files which utilizes the comparatively few available photographs to document a worthy subject, in this case the 1/4 ton M151 Mutt. This book benefits the reader by providing detailed color photographs of the Mutt in field conditions, from the barracks parking lot, to deplaning from a C-130 Hercules, to undergoing an engine change, to serving with the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces). Many details are revealed in the photographs, including engine, radios, batteries, hard-top kits, soft tops, trailers, and more. This book is extremely useful to scale modelers wishing to improve the Tamiya and Academy kits, as well as to military enthusiasts.
