In this book, a follow-up to the same author's well-received study of British web equipment, Martin Brayley gives a detailed illustrated overview of the webbing straps, holsters, carriers and haversacks used by American combat troops from before World War One to the Vietnam War. Hundreds of different items are photographed, and the often small differences between suppliers and periods are pointed in the learned and informative text. This book will be required reading for all students of Amercian uniform and equipment, modellers, re-enactors and collectors. AUTHOR: Martin Brayley is a leading collector and respected contributor to specialist journals in Britain and on the Continent. 100 colour illustrations
