Uniforms & Equipment of the Austro-Hungarian Army in World War One, Hardback Book

Uniforms & Equipment of the Austro-Hungarian Army in World War One Hardback

Hardback

Description

Franz Joseph I and Karl. These emperors ruled a multiethnic empire destined to become one of the central powers in World War I.

In addition to the studio portraits shown, the candid photos offer an authentic view of life in the trenches and on the battlefield.

Each photo has been carefully chosen and researched to offer the reader detailed information on the k.u.k (royal and imperial) Empire’s air, motor and medical corps, as well as infantry, artillery, pioneer and railroad troops.

There are chapters covering highly decorated elite units, such as the Bosnian and the Kaiserschuetzen.

A full color section of heretofore unpublished photos of original head dress, uniforms, equipment and accessories used by the k.u.k armed forces provides valuable information on the materials, markings, stamps, and construction of field caps, cavalry helmets and flight gear.

Also included in this section are pilot badges and cap and collar insignia.

This book is an indispensable resource for all historians, collectors, re-enactors, war gamers and model builders.
