From the Author:

The book is intended as a useful price guide for collectors and dealers in the global militaria marketplace. It is based on the photographs and information collected by the authors at hundreds of militaria fairs and shows in the UK, Europe and the USA.

About the Author:

Co-owner and publisher of the UK's leading militaria magazine, The Armourer. Gary Sterne is a keen collector of militaria and was a co-founder of The Armourer and Skirmish Magazines. He has always been fascinated with the D-day landings and in particular was intrigued by the lack of precise information relating the mystery of the "missing guns" of Pointe du Hoc. His research led to the finding of a map which indicated the position of an "unknown" German gun position buried in the village of Maisy. After buying the land and some years of struggling with the French authorities, he was able to open the huge site to the public. The re-discovery of the Maisy Battery made headline news around the world and has subsequently changed the history of the Omaha Sector forever. The site is now one of the major Normandy D-day attractions. www.maisybattery.com
