The sixth volume of the Propaganda Photo Series is the first detailed publication on the MG34, Germany's most important machine gun of World War II. This book contains a description of the development, production and use, the accessories and markings of the MG34, including many pictures and descriptions of prototypes and variants that have never been depicted and described before.
The most important quality of the Propaganda Photo Series however, is a unique selection of original German World War II propaganda photos, most never published before. The combination of solid information and original photos makes the Propaganda Photo Series the most extensive and reliable source of German small arms 'in-use', depicting the weapons and equipment as they were actually used. About the Author Guus de Vries is an acclaimed historian, specialising in the field of firearms. Thus far, he has written fifteen books on firearms history, mostly together with Bas Martens, and numerous articles for magazines in Belgium, Germany, Finland, the Netherlands, Russia, the United Kingdom and the U.S.A.
