BOOK REVIEW: ALLIED MILITARY MARKS IN GERMANY

The following announcement by Hans-Ludwig Grabowski appeared in the E-Sylum a few weeks ago.

First, however, I present a few comments. My copy just arrived after purchase from Michael. It is a superlative book. It is a catalog and ever so much more.

In fact, the catalog part is a tiny aspect of the book. It is filled with contemporary references to the money that fills in many details about the issuance of AMC marks in Germany. It is filled with a tremendous amount of original data on the money.

Indeed, this book revolutionizes our knowledge of this currency–a currency a lot of us take for granted.

Now the book is written in German. This will require some patience to use as a result. Interestingly a lot of the original documents are in English as they were written by and for the use of the occupying powers.

There is much intrigue here too about the Soviet issues—you will learn much.

My advice is:

1. Read the notice below.

2. Send Michael H. Schöne, michael@schoene-pirna.de an email and arrange to pay him 45 euros plus postage by Paypal or otherwise. He will tell you how much by return email. 3. Enjoy and use the book.
