Book of the Month: March 2025 M1 Helmets of the Argentine Army

Written by: Alfredo Girelli; Jorge Pruneda; photographs by Gonzalo Lauda; Patricio Orozco,

A wonderful book by a small team, I received this from Argentina and it is a truly a great read!

It is one of my favorite books on my shelf. There are 268 full colored pages with the main objective of researching the Argentine M1, although a couple others appear briefly in the introduction of the book. It covers the manufacture & manufacturers of the Argentine M1, goggles, covers, nets & you name it! I was rather pleased by the amount of camouflage covers I have not seen before. There was also an abundance of nicely detailed reference photos. 

It appears there are only 500 produced of this book. It's hard to find books this specific on Militaria, especially from South America. I highly recommend picking it up. This book can be purchased on eBay from this link, https://www.ebay.com/itm/387467025992|
