 | 20th Century Arms & Armor by Harry G. Summers, Stephen Bull
Written by a well-known expert on arms and armor, this highly illustrated book covers the infantry weapons used during the two World Wars, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Falklands War, and the Gulf War. It also looks at the development of portable anti-armor and anti-air weapons, and examines the use of weapons by criminals and by law enforcement agencies. A final chapter looks at the role of weapons in leisure and sport. This invaluable reference book is much more than a technical directory of facts and figures. Rather, it is an examination of how weapons were developed to meet new requirements, and how their characteristics affected combat. The story of the twentieth century has been shaped by warfare, and the story of warfare itself has been shaped by the weapons in this book. AUTHOR: Harry G. Summers, Stephen Bull
