U.S. Army Vehicle Markings, 1944

By: Jean Bouchery,Philippe Charbonnier

An illustrated guide to the markings used on WWII Era U.S. Army tanks, lorries and Jeeps—an invaluable reference for historians, modelers and collectors. The markings of a 1944 U.S. Army Jeep are an iconic image of American military and the Second World War. But few people know what the distinctive white letters, numbers and symbols actually mean. This uniquely detailed guide explains how these and other markings were integral to organizing the U.S. Army on the move. U.S. Army Vehicle Markings 1944 covers all the markings used on American military vehicles to denote their unit and classification. It also covers tactical markings and the debarkation codes used in the Normandy landings. Hundreds of contemporary photographs are paired with precise color diagrams to show exactly how markings appeared on vehicles, including the exact measurements. The volume explains all the variations in the use of these markings and includes a chapter on the varieties of camouflage used on vehicles.

Turbulent Times and Enduring Peoples

Mountain Minorities in the South-East Asian Massif

By: Jean Michaud,Jan Ovesen

Scattered across the South-East Asian massif, a few dozen ethnic groups (numbering around 50 million) maintain highly original cultural identities and political and economic traditions, against pressure from national majorities. They face the same challenges. The means by which social change has been imposed by the lowlanders are similar from country to country, and the results are comparable. The originality of this book lies in the combination of multi-disciplinary mixing of social anthropology, history and human geography; multi-culturality grouping together several cultural contexts; trans-nationality straddling five countries and bridging the traditional divide between South China and Mainland South-East Asia; and history reaching back 300 years.

When Giant Mammals Thundered

The Cenozoic Era

By: Jean F. Blashfield

Imagine the blooming of the very first flower. Or a 3-ton sloth with massive claws standing as tall as a giraffe. And horses the size of small dogs that have toes instead of hooves. This is not a dream or vision of an artist or author. This is North America over 20 million years ago! Journey into the distant past with this book and witness the earliest events in North America; when mammals rose from the shadows of the extinct dinosaurs to fill the land, and the first flowers and grasslands bloomed.

Historical Dictionary of the Peoples of the Southeast Asian Massif

By: Jean Michaud,Margaret Byrne Swain,Meenaxi Barkataki-Ruscheweyh

Dwelling in the highland areas of Northeast India, Bangladesh, Southwest China, Taiwan, Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, and Peninsular Malaysia are hundreds of “peoples”. Together their population adds up to 100 million, more than most of the countries they live in. Yet in each of these countries, they are regarded as minorities. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Peoples of the Southeast Asian Massif contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on about 300 groups, the ten countries they live in, their historical figures, and their salient political, economic, social, cultural and religious aspects. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more.

The Canadian Soldier

In North-West Europe, 1944-1945

By: Jean Bouchery,Jean-Marie Mongin,Alan McKay

Back in 2000, Histoire and Collections released two books by Jean Bouchery on the British Soldier in World War 2. Both books have been enormously successful. This new book, in the same format, will appeal in the same way as its predecessors. There is an unprecedented amount of color artwork depicting uniforms, variants, insignia, badges and equipment used by Canada's soldiers in the Second World War.

D-Day Paratroopers: the British, the Canadian, the French

By: Jean Bouchery

The very first ground actions linked to the D-Day in France were fought by the 'red berets', the famous British and Canadian paratroopers, but also by the lesser-known French SAS who jumped over Brittany the same day to fight a guerilla war. This book offers every detail of these elite soldiers.

Allies in Battledress

From Normandy to the North Sea - 1944-45

By: Jean Bouchery

This is the third volume of the vast trilogy devoted to the Allied troops under the Anglo-Canadian command of the 21st Army Group (the Tommy during the Liberation, 2 vols., and the Canadian during the Liberation). The aim of this book is to discover the distinguishing features of these volunteers who donned British battledress: Belgians, Luxemburgers, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, Poles, Norwegians, Czechs and Danes and who were engaged from the Normandy beaches to well into the heart of the Reich. It is intended for all sorts of amateurs of history: collectors, model-makers, historians and reconstitution groups. Jean Bouchery is a specialist of 1944-1945 and as such he is one of the regular authors for the specialized press, especially Militaria Magazine and has taken part in a number of works published by Histoire and Collections.
