        They just arrived and look very nice! We will try to ship them all today!

        Thanks for the very nice words and for the patience. I honestly hope that it was worth it!

              I finished Dietrich's mighty tome today. An excellent read for sure. The pics are great as expected but better yet are the details for procuring the awards, casting light on the inner workings of the Nazi regime.

                  If I remember correctly, these are the prices:
                  245$ for the leather edition
                  130$ for the regular

                  But look at Dietrichs website.

                      I hope you will allow me to extoll the fine work Dietrich Maerz produced in his latest book, The German Cross. This is in no way a plug between friends, though we are, nor an attempt to help a publisher. Instead, this is an attempt to spread the word of a must-have reference book. Dietrich's book on the RK was groundbreaking for the way he used the scientific method. Well, he has now perfected his work. Just like Phil's book is the complete PAB guide, Durante's was for the CCC, this one conquers the DK.
                      I was blown away by the methods of production - the man has a DK taken apart! It truly shows every piece of the manufacturing process. Then with all the infomation on each maker which shows the typical attention to detail, tight closeups, and improved photos - well, you will be able to identify each cross by maker in no time.

                      But my absolute favorite section is the one which shows various groupings of actual awarded DKs. From Hartman to the man in the trenches this section humanizes the award. What a treasure of period photos and history! Of course he also covers cases and award documents, all in amazing detail.

                      As we all know only an informed collector will beat the thieves out there. My library has benefitted greatly from the publications of Bender, Schiffer, Papjay, and the latest by B&D.

                        Thank you all for your very nice words. It is extremely gratifying after the long and hard work which was put into this book. And also another "Thank You" for the help I got from all over the world!

                        For me the chapter with the groups was a very hard one to do. Sometimes it was just 'too close" for me. But I think Marc is right, it puts some live into the medal.

                        The most astonishing group for me was the one from "Johann the Ghost" from the movie "Das Boot". His actual name was Oberleutnant (ing.) Hans Johannsen. He even got the Knights Cross end of March 1945! Who would have thought!

                        Here is Johann in the movie, portrayed by the actor Erwin Leder.

                          And here he is in real live. He survived the war and came out of British captivity in 1948.
