."FALLSCHIRMJÄGER - Uniformen und Ausrüstung 1936-1945" richtet sich gleichermaßen an Sammler, Uniformkundler und militärgeschichtlich interessierte Leser.§§Das in drei Bänden erscheinende Werk ist eine gründliche Studie der Uniform- und Ausrüstungsstücke, die in der deutschen Fallschirmtruppe getragen und verwendet wurden, von deren Anfängen bis hin zum Untergang des Dritten Reiches. Des Weiteren werden sämtliche Abzeichen und Dokumente behandelt, die mit den Fallschirmjägern zu tun hatten, sowie schließlich deren Einsätze - vom belgischen Sperrfort Eben-Emael über Kreta, Nordafrika, Russland, Italien mit Monte Cassino, die Normandie und die Ardennen bis hin zu den letzten Tagen des Nazi-Regimes.§§"FALLSCHIRMJÄGER - Uniformen und Ausrüstung 1936-1945" stellt die bislang umfangreichste und detaillierteste Studie zu allen Aspekten der Bekleidung und Ausrüstung der Fallschirmjäger dar, in der nahezu jedes von ihnen verwendete Uniformstück vorgestellt wird - einschließlich sämtlicher ausgegebener Muster des "Knochensacks".§§Für dieses Werk kam es zu einer so noch nie dagewesenen Zusammenarbeit von Sammlern und Museen aus aller Welt mit dem Autoren Karl Veltze und dem Zeughaus Verlag.§§Die drei Bände umfassen zusammen mehr als 1.000 Seiten mit Tausenden von speziell dafür angefertigten Farbfotos von originalen Sammlerobjekten, von denen einige zuvor noch nie gezeigt oder beschrieben wurden. Begleitet wird das Ganze von zeitgenössischen Aufnahmen, viele davon ebenfalls unveröffentlicht.

En octobre 2014, les Editions Point Barre publiaient « AC/DC Tours de France 1976-2014 »,ouvrage retraçant le parcours du mythique groupe de rock AC/DC dans notre pays. Cet ouvrage hors normes a fait l'unanimité puisqu'il a reçu un accueil dithyrambique de la part des médias : Grand Journal de Canal +, Alcaline sur France 2, RTL, Telerama, Voici, Inrocks, Rock & Folk, mais aussi l'ensemble de la presse rock et de la Presse Quotidienne Régionale, etc. Mieux encore - d'autant que c'était là une première - les membres d'AC/DC eux-mêmes ont salué la prouesse, à commencer par le guitariste Angus Young et le chanteur Brian Johnson (« C'est un ouvrage hyper complet. Tous les tickets, tous les concerts qu'on a faits... C'est juste INCROYABLE ! »). Norbert « Nono » Krief, guitariste de Trust, a même parlé de « bible pour la postérité ! ». Depuis la sortie de ce premier volume écoulé à près de 12.000 exemplaires, les auteurs, Philippe Lageat (rédacteur en chef de Rock Hard) et Baptiste Brelet (Can't Stop AC/DC webzine), sont retournés fouiller dans les greniers et en ont ressorti des centaines de nouvelles photos (pour la plupart totalement inédites et jamais publiées à ce jour) prises entre 1976 et 2014. Les Bonus se concentre avant tout sur les photos et se pose, non comme la suite du premier volume, mais comme son petit frère de 304 pages, son complément idéal : un ouvrage gavé de bonus inédits qui vient clore définitivement la période 1976- 2014 avant la sortie, plus tard, d'un troisième tome narrant la suite des aventures de nos rockers préférés.

Now, in a book of astonishing breadth and scope, comes the complete story of AC/DC. Everything you ever wanted to know and plenty more you never dreamt of is all here, the ultimate balls-out adventure, laced with sex, drunken escapades, and brawls--topped off with rare intimate photos to create the ultimate portrait of the ultimate rock band.
