From 1907-1915 the uniforms of the German Army went
through dramatic changes when Prussian blue was transformed
into the new 'feldgrau', or field gray. The next change came
in 1915 with the introduction of the new field gray wartime
and peacetime uniforms. This volume combines three period
volumes and each is illustrated in color and refer only to
the 1915 wartime and peacetime uniforms: 1. Deutchlands
Armee in feldgrauer Kriegs-und-Friedens-Uniform; 2. Feldgrau
in Krieg und Frieden, Berlin 1916; 3. Die Feldgrau
Friedens-und Kriegs-Bekleiding der K. Bayerischen Armee,
Munich 1916.

With a foreword by B. Bugaev,
Minister of Civil Aviation, this volume commemorates the
50th anniversary of Aeroflot, the state (and at the time,
only) civil air carrier of the USSR. Aeroflot was launched
in 1923 with a route from Moscow to Nizhny Novgorod (later
the city of Gorky). Today the airline flies internally more
than 778,000km linking some 3,500 cities in the Soviet
Union, together with an extensive international network. The
book is packed with narrative plus several hundred colour
and black and white photographs showing all aspects of
Aeroflot during a typical day. This scarce volume is in fair
to good condition despite some dicolouring (sunning) of
thefront boardd and slight detaching from the spine at the
title page.

The battle
of Crecy is of huge significance for the course of the
Hundred Years War. It witnessed the defeat of a major French
army with the king at its head, by the expeditionary force
of a kingdom which was not renowned for its military
prowess. Yet it is Agincourt which has engaged the popular
imagination, and Crecy has been neglected. This book seeks
to fill this gap, outlining the events of the campaign in
Normandy and Ponthieu of which Crecy was the culmination. It
offers new interpretations of the battle, from the
composition of the armies to the place of the battlefield,
and will be of major interest for any student of medieval
military history.
