During the Third Reich, almost every German wore a uniform, whether military or civil. Nearly 250 of the most important ones appear here, modeled by their most typical wearers. The paintings--based on contemporary photographs for accuracy-depict all the primary styles with their headdresses and insignias. Descriptive sections explain each uniform's place in the hierarchy, the battle roles of the wearer, and a fascinating range of detail. 224 pages, 240 color illus., 7 1/2 x 9 1/2.
