Black and Field Gray Uniforms of Himmler's SS Vol. 1: Black Service Uniforms by Lorenzo Silvestri (Hardcover, 2016)

Originally one of the paramilitary groups that arose in Germany's turbulent 1920s, the SS grew from its original protection activities into the Death's Head troops and the Verfugungstruppe, and later during WWII, the Waffen-SS. During its evolution, the SS changed from its black uniform into a variety of uniforms that eventually resembled those of the German army, in various types of fabric, and predominately field-grey, so often seen in period photographs and movies. In volume 1, Lorenzo Silvestri presents many different SS-VT, SS-TV, and SD uniforms with numerous full-colour photos to display how the clothing appeared. In addition, numerous detail images are used to clearly expose key features of the uniforms and equipment. The text explains important details about the creation, manufacturing, and wear of each item. Period photos illustrate the wear of each item presented in the books. The two volumes present the various helmets, caps, trousers, tunics and jackets in nearly 900 pages with over 1,400 colour, pre-WWII and WWII images. AUTHOR: Lorenzo Silvestri's favourite hobby is collecting WWII military artefacts, focusing on German SS and Italian relics. Silvestri's interest led to his photographic history books on the uniforms and the camouflage used by the Waffen-SS during World War II. 703 colour and b/w images
