This work of 640 pages and approx. 1700 photographs presents the incredible development of uniforms, armament and equipment of the French Army form mobilization in August 1914 until the armistice in 1918. It thus completes the work published in 2007 on the French Army at the outbreak of the war. Several hundred uniforms, artifacts and weapons belonging to the Musèe de l'Armèe in Paris, other prestigious museums and rich private collections have been photographed in this magnificent book typical of publications by Verlag Militaria. Access to these exceptional collections and the exploitation of archives have enabled new fields to be explored. With astonishment the reader will discover illustrations never before published from such varied fields as aviation, individual armour or gas masks deriving from the remarkable collection of the museum of the medical corps in Val-de-Grâce. The uniforms and status symbols of the most senior French military commanders are equally presented to the public for the first time under optimal photographic conditions. Finally, an incredible iconography of the time, consisting of nearly 400 unpublished photographs and ten autochromes,the majority of them not used until today, make this work into an indisputable reference book on the uniforms of the French army in the First World War. 640 pages, approx. 1700 photographs and illustrations, fully coloured Format: 29.5 cm x 26.0 cm (linen bound with a protective cover)
