The marshall cavendish illustrated encyclopedia of world war ii

[Darrell]

Actually for some reason I said 26 volumes. There are only 25

Anyway, I will do that

[Darrell]

VOLUME 24 - The Fighting Men (1945)

(includes - Picture of the table of Contents - The NSDAP Handbook as Ben was referring to earlier)

[Darrell]

VOLUME 25 - Chronology And Index / The Heraldry Of War (1945)

Also as per historyguy's request a picture of the Table of Contents:

That's it, all 25 Volumes.
Decent read. I don't believe I ever read them from cover to cover since I got them via mail order in the early 70's.

What I can remember, they sent you Volume 1 for a "free trail". Once you paid for it, they sent Volumes 2, 3 and 4 each separate under the same conditions. Once you had paid for the first 4 volumes, they sent Volumes 5 thru 10 and finally Volumes 11 thru 25 in a final shipment.

Now ... I still have another two complete WW2 Sets of Hardcover books to get through (I have read them before).
I will post cover and spine pictures as I did with these. The covers are a bit more interesting than the above set ...

Thanks Darrell!!!

Looks like yet another addition to the "Book Want List!"

[Darrell]

You are welcome. These can be found on e-bay as well. Complete sets or individually. The main issue with buying a set is shipping costs as these complete are really heavy.
