I just received volume II, Navy, Luft, Police, SS to compliment volume 1 all army.
The box sell at $79 each but i purchased mine from hamilton book on amazon for 45 each.
Johnsons books are a little less technical like Angolia, but are loaded with color photos of sabers in wear. Its a wonderful photographic journed the TR and wehrmacht with dress sabers in wear and parade. Definitely reccommend these as there is soo little reference available for sword collectors.
I wish there was a book written in a manner which mashed Angolia Sword and Johnsons new sword books. List each model of each type saber by each manufacturer including Nr numbers and additonally additionally add all the nice photos of the sabers in wear.
Anway, if you collect swords, even casually, check his new books out. All you really need are the first two volumes. Definiteley worth a read and they have tons of color and black and white photos.
Just my 2 cents in the bucketl
