About this book:
Friedrich Ludwig Scharf painted the troops as they looked going about their daily duties. Scharf, on one hand an artist, had also been a career Jager enlisted man, rising to the rank of Offizierstellvertrater in 1918. He spent most of his wartime service on the Eastern front, where he observed and fought with the Cavalry regiments, as well as the Reserve and Landsturm troops assigned to that front. In his paintings the uniform historian and military modeler will find accurate and sometimes amusing representations of what Scharf actually saw. This book is a must for the serious student of the uniforms of the German forces from 1910 to 1939, portrayed in the unique style of Friedrich Ludwig Scharf, 1884-1965. By Charles Woolley. 120 page hardcover book with over 120 large color and black & white plates.
