German artillery has been a subject of study for many years, but it is rare to find the original source material for such studies. These two pamphlets were issued in 1948 and include all known operational German artillery of the Second World War. In the two volumes are no fewer than 198 plates of the guns and their ammunition, and appendices, charts and tables give every detail of the weapons that was available, even to German gunners. The books are introduced with a history of the development of German artillery, and then follow a standard layout. The guns are covered in the following order: (Part 1) antitank artillery, infantry guns, recoilless guns, Field Artillery, Medium Artillery, Heavy and super-Heavy Artillery, (Part 2) light Flak, Medium Flak, Heavy Flak, Coast Defence Artillery and Railway Artillery. Among the guns covered are the 8.8cm antitank guns, 10.5 and 15 cm field guns, the 42cm Gamma Mortar, the four-barreled Flakvierling (so feared by Allied ground attack pilots), 8.8cm Flak guns, the 15 and 24cm heavy Flak designs and the super-heavy Siegfried , Adolf, Bruno and the 80 cm Kanone E. Many books cover this subject, but none to greater detail, nor with the wealth of illustrations that make these books a prime source for all who need information of German artillery in the Second World War.

A prime source for all who need information regarding German AFVs in the Second World War. The issue of this publication, two years after the end of the war in Europe, was designed to put on record essential information on the armament of the German Land Forces during the war. It includes some of the more interesting equipment that was developed, but which, due to the conclusion of hostilities, or to production difficulties, did not come into general service. This publication, laid down in the form of a reference album, is primarily a photographic record, supported by specifications, and in some instances a short description. The material was drawn from the large collection of matter compiled by the Technical Intelligence Services during and subsequent to WW2. Much of it appeared in various Technical Intelligence Summaries and Bulletins, issued by the War Office and by GHQs overseas, supplemented by photographs and details added from German sources after the collapse of Germany. It should be noted that all figures quoted are taken from German sources. It is appreciated that in many instances these differ from the figures quoted in contemporary official British and American sources.
