Product Description This third volume of a mini-series covering the German forces in World War I examines the troops that fought during the climax of the war on all fronts: the last great battles of attrition in the West (Arras, Messines, 3rd Ypres - Passchendaele/Langemarck - and Cambrai, 1917) and the collapse of Russia in the East. The 'Kaiserschlacht' campaign is covered, as are the German operations in Italy, the Balkans, and in support of Turkey in the Middle East. Uniform changes during this period reflected the introduction of new tactics and weapons and new types of troops, such as tanks and assault battalions.

| Customer Reviews: Good Numbers Book January 28, 2010 Michael F. Brookman (San Martin, CA) This book and the other 2 in the series about the German Army during the time of WW1 are fine detail books. Great stats, order of battle, organizational relationships, etc. Not a good story read. More of a research resource. Worth the $$$.

Great 3 book set June 24, 2008 danny boy (Singapore) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Osprey does this mini-series now and then. This 3 booklet mini series on the German Army covers broadly the range of uniforms and accoutrements worn during the Great War on all fronts. The coverage is good as it covers the main changes in uniforms at key points throughout the conflict.
The very nice illustrations are also quite inspiring. For the price, this mini-series should be worth getting.
Late Great War Germans June 5, 2007 James 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is an excellent affordable book that covers the German army in the last days of the war. The book gives information on uniforms and equipment. Details on the status of the German Army in the given years. Also, the book provides what units existed, formed, dissolved in the years stated. I would also recommend buying the second part of this series. Because the third shows and discuses what new few uniforms were introduced and amendments to the uniforms introduced in 1915. While the second book gives a complete descriptions of the uniforms introduced in 1915. So in conclusion if you want the info on the late war German Army 1917-18 get this book as well as the second book.
