In 1912, the Balkan states formed an alliance in an effort to break free from the crumbling Ottoman Empire. Forming an army of some 645,000 troops from Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia and Montenego, they took on a force of 400,000 Turkish soldiers. Both sides were equipped with the latest weapons technology. This book looks at the diverse and sometimes colorful uniforms worn by both sides, paying special attention to insignia, weapons and equipment. It also gives an overview of the campaign that became a "priming pan" of World War I. 48 pages, Illustrated, soft cover, fine.

In the late 19th century, the new nation-state of Italy was eager to join her European neighbors in creating an international empire. Italy's eyes turned towards Africa as a source of potential colonies. Most of the continent had already been carved up between the Great Powers but Italy succeeded in securing a foothold in Eritrea on the Red Sea coast, a vassal of the Emperor of Ethiopia. Trade and other links were established with the Ethiopian empire but quarrels regarding the interpretation of a particular clause led to Ethiopian support for uprisings in Eritrea. Italian troops entered northern Ethiopia and captured Adowa, the capital of the Tigray province. Full-scale war broke out and this new Osprey title tracks every development in the battle and the men who fought in it. 48 pages, Illustrated, soft cover, fine

The Ottoman Turkish Empire was one of the leading protagonists of World War I, and the stolid courage of the individual Ottoman soldier was recognised by all. Yet the army in which he served is, like the Ottoman empire itself, generally little understood. Over the four years of the Great War, the Ottoman Army, Navy and two tiny air services fought on five major fronts, as well as seeing troops serve in many other war zones. This title takes a close look at the organisation, uniforms and equipment of the Ottoman Army during this period, and dispels the numerous myths that have surrounded the examinations of its forces at this time. Navy, Air, auxiliary and allied forces are also covered. 48 pages, Illustrated, soft cover, fine

DIE ELBERFELDER BILDERHANDSCHRIFT Bilder und Dokumente aus napoleonischer Zeit Elberfeld lag in den Jahren 1813 bis 1819 an einer der Hauptheeresstraßen von Ost nach West, bzw. umgekehrt. Während dieser Zeit passierten Russen, Preußen, Schweden, Franzosen, Hanseaten, Dänen, Mecklenburger, Baschkiren, etc. - Kurz, alles, was nur ein Gewehr, eine Lanze, einen Säbel oder auch Bogen halten konnte, scheint hier durchmarschiert zu sein. Die Elberfelder Bilderhandschrift legt mit 235 Uniformdarstellungen Zeugnis von diesem kunterbunten Völkergemisch ab. Sie gehört zu den am meisten ausgewerteten zeitgenössischen Bilderserien. In hervorragender Weise ergänzt wird diese Bilderhandschrift durch das Tagebuch von Hackenberg, der, zu gleicher Zeit in Elberfeld lebend wie der bis heute unbekannte Künstler der Bilderserie, ebenfalls die durchmarschierenden Truppen beobachtete und beschrieb. Ergänzt werden diese Quellen durch weitere zehn zeitgenössische Bilder des Elberfelder Malers Peter Schulten. Das Buch zeigt die komplette Bilderserie und bringt das vollständige Tagebuch, dazu eine genaue Beschreibung und Auswertung der gezeigten Bilder. Im Anhang finden Sie eine kurze Abhandlung über die Garnison von Magdeburg, das Arbeiten mit zeitgenössischen Quellen und eine Übersicht über die in der Bilderhandschrift gezeigten und im Tagebuch erwähnten Truppen, einmal in chronologischer Reihenfolge und einmal aufgeschlüsselt nach Ländern und Einheiten - eine unentbehrliche Hilfe für jeden Heereskundler, historisch Interessierten und Modellbauer von napoleonischen Figuren. 280 pages, Illustrated, hard cover, fine 4to.

The Blackshirt legions were raised under army control from 1928, and were employed in 1933 in Libya in counterinsurgency operations against the Senussi tribes; from 1935 in Italy's war against Ethiopia; and during the Spanish Civil War. Following the outbreak of World War II, the Blackshirts fought in North Africa, Greece, Croatia, on the Eastern Front and finally in Italy itself following the Allied invasion. This book documents the experiences of the Italian armed Fascist militia, the Camicie Nere (Blackshirts), from the Italian-Ethiopian war (1935-1936), through the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) to the end of World War II (1939-1945). It explores their origins, development, recruitment, training, conditions of service, uniforms and equipment, battle experience, political and ideological motivation. 64 pages, illustrated, soft cover, fine

Focusing on the Italian Army in North Africa during World War II, which fought alongside the Afrikakorps under Rommel versus Montgomery and Patton, this title combines with the previous Warrior series books on the subject (and other Osprey titles) to complete the picture of the War in the Desert. Despite the attention paid to the Afrikakorps over the years, it was the numerically far superior forces of the Italian Army that held the line and formed the bulk of the fighting power available to the Axis powers during the War in the Desert from 1941 through to 1943. Their performance has been unfairly criticized over the years - the best units of the Italian Army were equal to those of the British and Germans - but they suffered from a lack of mobility and poor equipment that made it impossible for them to meet mobile British forces on anywhere near equal terms. Despite this, the Italian Army went through many changes through the period, with the introduction of a variety of elite units - armoured, mechanised and parachute divisions that did much to restore the fighting reputation of the Italian soldier in the Desert War. Their German allies belatedly acknowledged this with the redesignation of Panzerarmee Afrika as 1st Italian Army in February 1943._x000B_This title details recruitment, organisation and experience of the Italian forces in this theatre, casting new light on a force whose fighting power and capabilities have been unfairly ignored and maligned for too long. 64 pages, Illustrated, soft cover, fine

Volume 2.: 1915-1918. In January 1914 the French Army had 47 divisions (777,000 French and 46,000 colonial troops) in 21 regional corps, with attached cavalry and field-artillery units. By 1918 about 40% of all French troops on the Western Front were artillerymen. Increasing use of machine-guns, armoured cars and tanks also reduced the numbers in the infantry. This volume examines the French Army's last year of the Great War. 66 pages, Illustrated, soft cover, fine
