Condición: New. HB 320 pp C.350 photographs and illustrations, linen-bound with a protective cover Here the reader can discover new and hitherto unknown facts about the testing and purchasing of motorcycles such as, for example, the background of the development of the Puch 800 and the 350 GS. This means that this work on military motorcycles is at the same time a valuable source of information on the civilian models produced by the Puch Works in Graz. The varied perception of Puch motorcycles by their users is particularly significant. Other Austrian brands (LAG and Delta-Gnom) were unable to make their mark in the Federal Army of the First Republic. In an era of economic hardship and political upheaval, the occasional foreign brand also reached the Federal Army, for example NSU, James, Harley-Davidson and Moto Guzzi.The German motorcycle manufacturer BMW enjoyed unchallenged popularity in Austria's military, Police and Gendarmerie forces but Austria's motor industry should not be underestimated in its role in the motorisation of the Federal Army. Government policies dictated that domestic production be supported by commissions from the authorities, although it was not unusual for these measures to be circumvented by individual public departments. After 1920 financial straits initially hampered the acquisition of motorcycles for the new Federal Army. Although purchasing despatch motorcycles was relatively unproblematic, the circuitous path to finding a suitable, domestically-produced motorcycle and sidecar combination for military use extended almost as far as Germany's 'annexation' of Austria in 1938. In preparation for the writing of this book, the author spent several years researching sources in the Austrian State Archives and the Archives of the Republic, bringing to light some surprising facts. Based on these records a number of deep-seated rumours can now be dispelled. This book offers many new insights into a neglected chapter of Austrian military and motor-vehicle history.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. HB 560 pp + 80 colour picture pages and 4 large scale maps . This will probably become the seminal English language book on the German army as it entered World War I. It explains the social, political, and economic structure of the country as it relates to the German military. It is the only English-language source that fully explains the German army-both active and reserve forces coupled with their training and doctrine. More importantly, this book discusses the structural issues in the German army that led directly to its failure at the Battle of the Marne. Specifically, leadership issues, logistical issues, and the misuse of cavalry created significant fissures that could have been corrected before the war.This is a different view of the Great War than the well-known "Guns of August" published in 1962. The Great War Dawning presents a critical look at the doctrine of the time and how leadership's failure to overhaul outmoded methods led to the downfall of imperial Germany's plans in 1914.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. HB 400 pp approx. 750 colour photographs, contemporary B&W photographs and illustrations, bound in linen with a protective cover. The introduction of a new, more powerful powder and the corresponding weapons took place under enormous time pressure so it was inevitable that there would be initial teething problems with these new products, which were not yet fully developed. There are, to this day, many notions regarding these problems that are either unclear or inaccurate. Like the 1st volume, this book is based on the extensive study of Germany's archival material and on extant pieces in public and private collections, which has made it possible to present a detailed reconstruction of the actual circumstances. The 88 model weapons went through two periods of usage: the first began with the hasty rearmament of the German armies around 1890 and ended with the introduction of the 98 models in the years leading up to 1914. It was during the First World War, when a serious shortage of firearms made itself felt, that many of these weapons, which had already been decommissioned, were once again taken out of the depots and reactivated. Both of these periods are covered in this book. It would have made no sense to divide essential accessories such as cartridge pouches and bayonets, which represent their own areas of collection, between the two volumes and so both are dealt with in this second volume, which also includes chapters on the target weapons and 'fencing' rifles that have hitherto been neglected. This volume concludes the trilogy on Imperial German firearms that began with the book: 'Rifle and Carbine 98'.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. HB 392 pp approx. 900 colour photographs, contemporary BW-photographs and illustrations, bound in linen with a protective cover. This work provides a detailed picture of the development of German military rifles from the Werder rifle up to the M/71.84. It is based on many years of extensive study in German archives as well as renowned public and private collections and is thus able to dispel a number of myths and details based on little more than hearsay, replacing them with sound knowledge. The text is accompanied and supported by more than 900 original contemporary photographs, reproductions of documents and high quality colour photographs of existing items, including hundreds of details in close-up. Many of the objects, weapons and accessories are shown here for the first time. The result is a largely new portrayal, built on a broad base of primary sources, of the development of German long arms in the years after 1870, which is bound to remain the standard work on the subject for the foreseeable future.This volume describes German military rifles of 11 mm calibre. Their common feature was that they fired cartridges with metal cases and black powder as their propellant. In Germany, it was Bavaria that was at the forefront of this development, with the M/69 rifle, also known as the Werder rifle. The reader will discover how this weapon was developed, produced and used, the problems which arose, how they were solved and how the rifle was finally taken out of service. Naturally all the variations, the accessories and the ammunition are also described in detail andshown in photographs. The M/71 and M/71.84 rifles are dealt with in the same way and for the first time the Chassepot rifles used in the German Imperial Army are comprehensively presented. The time frame extends to the end of the First World War, since many black powder weapons were still used, mainly for training purposes, up to 1918.This book also covers the weapons of the police and Gendarmerie, so readers interested in the history of Germany's police force will also find much new information.The second volume on the M/88 and M/91 rifle and carbine, will complete the portrayal of the long arms of the German Empire that began with the book on the M/98 rifle and carbine.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. 624 pp with approx. 1500 photographs many in full colour. More than 600 orders, medals, commemorative badges and more are shown here in a scale of 1:1 and the individual manufacturers and various models are dealt with in depth. Detailed descriptions of these items of highly skilled workmanship are complemented by the inclusion of the relevant ribbons, sashes, cases and certificates. The authors worked closely with important museums and private collectors to compile this book and were thus also able to present medals belonging to famous historical figures such as the Austrian Kaiser Franz Joseph I, the Turkish Sultan Mehmet V, Grossherzog Friedrich von Baden, Serbian generals Jovan Belimarkovich and Milojko Leshjanin and Minister Jovan Avakumovich among others.Recently many counterfeit medals and copies have come onto the market. For this reason the authors have gone to great lengths to explain just how to distinguish originals from reproductions and fakes. The world of Serbian and Yugoslavian medals is presented here for the first time on this scale with over 2,000 illustrations. This book is a must for anyone with an interest in medals and decorations as well as those interested in learning more about the historical development of Serbia and Yugoslavia.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. Hardback 600 pages, approx. 1650 colour colour photographs & contemporary BW-photographs and illustrations. In August 1914, Belgium suddenly made the newspaper headlines when Imperial Germany, forgetting its international commitments, invaded the little country, thereby violating its neutral status. Britain retaliated by declaring war. Like Serbia, Poor Little Belgium became a cause worth defending and gave legitimacy to the conflict that the allied nations entered into. In military terms, the Belgian army surprised the entire world by resisting with greater vigour than expected. With their modest resources (230,000 men), the Belgian armed forces, cornered as they were in a small and partly inundated scrap of territory, succeeded in fighting off the enemy for the duration of the war, and managed to join forces with the allies in the offensive of Autumn 1918. Belgium, a victim of crippling destruction and the systematic dismantling of its industry, was accordingly afforded priority in its entitlement for compensation when the peace treaties were signed.This volume of 600 pages (with more than 1,650 colour and black-and-white photographs) is dedicated to the uniforms and equipment used by the Belgian army and other affiliated armed forces such as the garde civique and the force publique in the Belgian Congo. The bibliographic data known to us to date on this subject is limited, representing no more than a set of articles and brochures brought together over the period of a century.This work, unprecedented in its comprehensiveness, can therefore be considered an excellent reference tome. It is based on the extensive collections on display in the Belgian Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and of Military History. Supplementary private collections have been the source of many other objects in order to provide as much illustrative material as possible for this publication. Like many small states in 1914, the Kingdom of Belgium had an army that absorbed and blended influences from the major powers, drawing inspiration from both France (uniforms) and Germany (equipment). Budgetary necessity meant that uniforms had to be simplified for the infantry (line infantry, chasseurs a pied, carabiniers, etc.), the cavalry (guides, lancers, chasseurs a cheval, etc.), the artillery and the engineering corps, leaving very few distinctive features - except some extremely outdated forms of headdress - to distinguish between the different arms. When stocks ran out, this striving to achieve uniformity culminated in the issuance of khaki uniforms in 1915. They were cut to a common pattern inspired by British styling. A new headdress, the French Adrian helmet, was introduced shortly afterwards. The circumstances of this war meant that the provenance of the basic materials and equipment was diverse, with France, Great Britain, Italy, Russia, Argentina and the United States supplying material for objects that have now become scarce in existing collections.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condición: New. HB 528 pp approx. 1000 photographs and illustrations. The originals illustrated in the book derive from the Musà e de l'Armà e in Paris and Salon-de-Provence (L'Empà rie) and are supplemented by major public and private collections. The majority of the artefacts are shown to the public for the first time. All of this presents a well structured and authentic picture of the French army at the beginning of the war and during the initial fighting in the Battle of the Marne. With more than 300 carefully selected black and white and ten contemporary, original colour photographs ('autochromes') the reader is given a realistic impression of the appearance of the French army in the 'Belle Epoque'. The book shows the reader the colourfulness of the French army at the beginning of the war in Europe, supplemented by the traditions of African and Arab units and influences on uniforms. The orientally inspired clothing of 'L'Armà e d'Afrique', the uniforms of the Foreign Legion and colonial troops and elegant officers' clothing mirror both the fashions of the time and the prestige of wearing uniform. The complete equipment of a colonial soldier before 1914 - from his kà pi to his knife - in almost mint quality, each individual item stamped with the personal registration number of the soldier, gives these objects a human and emotional dimension. The large number of artefacts available makes it possible to produce a second volume covering the period from the end of 1914 until 1918. It will present the extraordinary development of uniforms during the war and especially the introduction of the horizon-blue dress which was so typical of the French soldier during the Battle of Verdun. This volume will also contain the personal uniforms and items of equipment of famous personalities and officers up to the rank of field marshal.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.
