I agree, it is a very nice book. It covers the 14. to the 38. Divisionen, with more detail for some units than for others. The coverage includes many photos most readers won't have seen before. I'm in the special position of having provided a number of photos for the book, as well as having visited NARA, where I scanned many of the same photos that Charles uses in this book. However, the material on 24. WGD, in particular was mostly new to me, as was the 21. WGD material that John mentioned. The 18. SS-FPGD photos were also new, though not of the same quality as the Skanderbeg and Karstjäger ones.
This Dictionnaire volume 3 will gradually become available in North America, and the rest of the world. It was printed as recently as December 2011, so it is just a matter of the boats crossing the right oceans with the books for distributors. Once this happens, it will be well worth the purchase for those who like to see new Waffen-SS photos.
