| Welcome to my offering of militaria and Americana books. Through my love of metal detecting and relic hunting, I chose to specialize in reference books on militaria ID and archaeological field reports. The vast majority of my offerings in this area fall under the category of general militaria ID, button ID, accoutrement plate ID, bullet ID and insignia ID but I do have a nice selection of books on unit histories, fort research, ghost town research and general Americana. Most of my offerings are either rare, used or out of print. However, I do have several titles that are currently in print. I hope that you find something you are looking for. If not, please do not hesitate to send me your want list. |
