I got this book from a shop that was going out of business (unfortunately). I was very glad I did, as it has plenty of color photographs, a brief history of the uniforms and insignia and a chapter on painting flesh tones. Based on using AK Interactive paints. Mine is 4th edition of the Guidebook. I did notice that there is a 2 on the cover making me ask the question, is there a volume 1? Either way a great asset to painting WW II Panzer crewmen.
