Review:
This book collects dozens of drawings (and *one* photo) of the Great War. Most are in black and white (though I assume they mostly were done in color), and there are just a few color pages thrown in. About every aspect of the war is covered, as you can see from the list of chapters: trenches, dugouts, "no man's land", artillery, raids and patrols, weapons, tanks, stretcher bearers, gas attacks, mining, signaller, runners, grenades, and more. From a modeler's point of view, it's quite useful both for detailing and for dioramas ideas: recommended! --By Federico Kereki
