Nuts & Bolts 22

Since I will be building the Grille in the Xtremely Little and Lethal group build I decided to get the Nuts and Bolts volume 22 on the 15cm sIG33/2 auf 38(t) or "Grille".



This volume consists of high quality 120 pages in an A4 format with both English and German text. It starts off with 28 pages of text (with a few photos and tables) describing the development, technical description, production, organisation, delivery to units, camouflage and markings and also a section on modelling by Tony Greenland. This is followed by numerous historical captioned black and white photos, many of them unpublished. The next section is a series of 1:35 line drawings from all angles of both the gun and ammunition carrier followed by 11 pages of camouflage schemes with small photos of the real vehicles on which they are based. Finally the book concludes with 98 coloured photos of existing examples of the Sd.Kfz. 138/1 Ausf. M from the only two surviving vehicles in the US Army Ordnance Museum, Aberdeen & Patton Museum, Fort Knox and 18 coloured model photos of both versions from Tony Greenland.

A very interesting and comprehensive book on this particular vehicle and highly recommended.

I found the book to be fantastic, the only draw back was the price 72.00 US Dollars is friigen nutz.

That's very expensive, got mine from Historex Agents (http://www.historexagents.com) for the equivalent of $24. They offer an excellent mail service too, I received it after a few days.
