I don't read German, but I understand that this book written in German 1939, "Wir vom Alpenkorps", I think translates to We from the Alpine Corp, sorry, not sure. The book is all in German, full of text and pictures, of the troops in the Alpine mountains in 1939. Shows staff, equipment, struggles of the adventure. Sorry to be so vague, but please look at the pictures. The book is a little loose at the binding, and has some wear, slight dirt, and slight staining from laying about for 80 years. Still a great read and reference book.
