Hello all! I'm looking for another good book on the DAK - I haven't been keeping up with the new releases, so I thought I'd ask. I'm really looking for something that has a bit more day to day stuff of regular soldiers..And in the sprit of cooperation, I thought I'd throw a couple of recommendations out too.
The first two are picture books, eye candy:
Afrikakorps: Rommel's Tropical Army in Original Colora by Bernd Peitz, Schiffer
Arikakorps: Tropical Uniforms of the German Army, 1941-1945 by Jacque Scipio, Historie and Collections
Finer details, collectors resource, and some great photographs:
Afrikakorps: Army, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine, Waffen SS, by Robert Kurtz, Schiffer
Very good read, mostly short, personal stories of RK holders:
Knights Cross Holders of the Afrika Korps by Franz Kurowski, Schiffer
Rommel Stories:
The Trail Of The Fox Erwin Rommel The Desert Fox by by David Irving
Knight's Cross : A Life of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel by David Fraser
