A handy guide that gives an overview of the weapons used by Waffen-SS divisions in World War II. The work opens with a short introduction on the history of the Waffen-SS. The book sections include: Edged Weapons; Small Arms (pistols, submachine guns, rifles, machine guns: MG-34, MG-42, etc.); Artillery (Infantry, field, heavy); Armored Cars (SdKfz half-tracks, etc.); Tanks & SPWs. Nice photos of the items discussed. It is not an exhaustive tome on the subject but gives a nice overview of the commonly issued and used weapons/equipment.
