This volume is crammed with HUNDREDS of floorplans, technical drawings and photos and maps showing design and all there is to know about the technical characteristics of the bunkers and defences.

This 2-volume book is a massive (weighing about 7 kgs.!!) referencework, that tells everything you'll want and need to know on this defenceline. If it's not in the book - it's probably not important! All details on the bunkers, armament, armor, equipment, doors, etc.

The book is witten in German entirely and illustrated with more than 1000 photos, plans, drawings, maps and documents - what a FANTASTIC legendary reference work!
