    Books about Wound Badges

    There are several books about wound badges.

    One seems to be : "German Wound Badges" by William E. Hamelmann. ISBN 0-931065-07-0. Matthaeus Publishers, Dallas (USA).
    But can't find anything more on it browsing through Google... or this Forum.

    What are the Wound Badges books you know ?
    Which ones do you recommand ?
    Any comment on them ?

    Please, could you post here exact and precise data about them : title, author, date of publishing, publisher, language, ISBN number.... and if possible, a pic of the book cover.

    In advance, many thanks.

    Cheers.

    Just a precision : this book has been published in 1993.

    Has someone any comment about it, a pic of its front cover ?
    And if interesting, where to find it ?

      The Hamelman book is the only one I know of dedicated strictly to wound badges. His book is a bit disappointing, mainly because of the horrible picture quality. I still use it though, as it is the only game in town. Somebody SHOULD write a book about wound badges though...its an interesting topic.

        Hi Andy,

        Many thanks for your answer.
        I prefer telling it right now : I won't write this new book as I'm a beginner in this field. .
        Could you, please, post a pic of its cover ? Easier to identify if by chance I can find a copy of it...

        Many thanks.

            Here's a shot of the cover.It's a good starter book but, the need for a better one is there.

                        Do you, by chance, have kept the references ?

                        Cheers.

                          Any other known book about Wound Badges ?
                          Only one until now (+ a non identified Italian one...) ?
