Quoted Text
Ralph,
If you find something, would you please tell me where and what kind of sources you look through to find this type of material?
Thanks again!!
No problemo Anders: I always use a broad network so I can compare documentation
of historical events. I thoroughly read & compare each individual source to the other, making
sure the historical data/reference fully coincides together as a whole.
Therefore, what I look for, is that each individual source verifies itself against the other. If there is a discrepency between them, then I want to know why & how. So I will search further into the subject in question, until I can find if the discrepency is " bogus " or does have significance.
That's the way I usually do all my referencing no matter what the subject is. I just can't
see picking up one book, web site, etc and saying " yea, that's correct ". I feel one should go the extra mile to get a well rounded source of info - and get the facts straight.
I even reference the book itself & the author before I buy it. There are known to be some
author's who write books on W.W.II military subjects but have a total disregard for historical facts, especially when it come's to photo's and their caption's. That's where the reader need's to be careful. ( Sorry I rambled on here Ander's )
MY SOURCES FOR THIS TOPIC:1). German Soldiers of W.W.II ( Histoire & Collections - by Jean De Lagarde ).
2). SS Armor ( Squadron/Signal Pub. - by Robert C. Stern ).
3). SS Totenkopf, The History of the Death's Head Division 1940-45 - by Dr.Chris Mann ).
4). SS - Steel Rain ( by Tim Ripley )
5). The Eastern Front 1941-45 ( by Duncan Anderson, Lloyd Clark & Stephen Walsh ). - ralph
