The Military Service Publishing Company, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, 1943

[October 1943] Second revised edition. Softcover, 216 pages. Book published during World War II. Includes: Special Map A, a folded map laid in. Also laid in: 12 plates of Aerial Photographs, Plot Map of Photographs, Photo Coordinate Atlas Grid, and two cardboard Protractors (one in degrees, the other in Mils). Condition: Expected age toning, shelf and age wear, age darkening of cloth spine; gutter cracked at Copyright and Publishers' Forward pages; several pages have pinholes at top borders. The large folded map, Map A, has several tears. However, overall, book and laid-in material are Very Good. Complete, and very uncommon in this condition. Many illustrations and explanations were originally published by the U.S. Army; Military Service Publishing added material. In this second revised edition, there is new text, new chapters on foreign maps and map projections, and many illustrations. The material is based closely on the field requirements of the U.S. Army. All information from official manuals has been edited and clarified, according to the publisher. Vintage, historical, and hands-on practical. A very important collectible, since book was actually used by a soldier in World War II, according to his son.
