Recommended Reading: Ballantine's Illustrated series

It was bound to happen. Because of my continued interest in reading books re WW2, I was one day going to bump into books from the extensive 'Ballantine's Illustrated' series. They are written in the late '60s - early '70s by various authors, usually about 160 pages long, accompanied by dozens of authentic b/w photographs, found in used book shops, and very good reading.

Dedicated WW2 history buffs likely have the whole set on their shelves. When I spot one I buy it.
