Reviews

"...a truly good book on a series of events that few people know anything about."-- "ModelingMadness.Com"
"Dozens of rare, previously unpublished photos season the study. Twenty-one color plates - eight military vehicles by David Bocquelet, four uniforms by Anderson Subtil, and nine aircraft by Tom Cooper - provide plenty of period project prospects."-- "Cybermodeler"
"Excellent background and military comparison of the Western confrontation with Tito's Yugoslav Army over the city of Trieste from the end of WWII to the mid 1950s."-- "Historical Miniatures Gaming Society"
"These photos certainly give you a good perspective of the events described. I am looking forward to future volumes in Helion's Europe @ War series."-- "IPMS/USA"
