Concord Publications have just announced the second volume in their short series on German Artillery.

7063 - German Artillery at War 1939-45 Vol. 2 (ISBN 962-361-144-7) is written by Frank V. De Sisto and consists of 72 pages, 16 color plates (by Laurent Lecocq), and 197 photos.

The artillery pieces covered in this book are: 2cm Flakvierling 38, 8.8cm FlaK36 and 37, 10.5cm FlaK38 and 39, 7.5cm I.IG18, 15cm NbW41 rocket launcher and 10.5cm I.FH18. Antitank guns such as the 3.7cm PaK35 and 36, 5cm PaK 40 are featured along with Flak weapons, 2cm FlaK30 and heavy artillery such as the the 21cm Mrs18. Also included are the many captured artillery systems which were given widespred use.

The difference between this and the previous volume is that the subjects covered are non-divisional types, without duplicating it should be a more than appropriate complement to the first volume.

Editor's Update I've just been sent an e-mail explaining that in fact, this book covers, in NEW photos, essentially the same artillery subjects as Volume 1. What HAS changed is the text which covers Non-Divisional artillery.
