20th Century Military Uniforms: 300 Uniforms From Around the World Book

Over the last 100 years the uniforms worn by soldiers around the world have changed dramatically as fabric technology has improved and the need for effective concealment from ever more lethal weaponry has grown. From global conflicts such as World War 1 and 11 to less well-known wars like those fought in Africa in the 1960's, 20th Century Military Uniforms covers a wide variety of wars and geographical locations.

The book provides a unique and readily accessible reference guide to the most important and most interesting uniform designs in use throughout the world during the age of total war. 20th Century Military Uniforms includes examples from famous units such as the 101st Airborne, the Waffen-SS, the British Paratroop Regiment, the Soviet Special Forces, and the French Foreign Legion.

Each of the 300 uniforms is illustrated by a full-color artwork, with accompanying text and a table describing the figure's date, affiliation, rank, location at the time, and the conflict or theatre in which they were serving.
