German Military Ribbon Bars fills an obvious gap in reference works on German awards and medals. Drawing on many resources from around the world, his own collection, and with many unpublished photographs from 1914-1970, author Mark Hayden examines German ribbon bars from World War I, the Inter-War years, World War II and finally those worn by veterans in the reconstituted Bundeswehr of 1957. The wide variety of construction, styles, and combinations are discussed in detail, along with information on values, availability, and reproductions. This book is sure to be a welcome addition to the libraries of militaria collectors and students of military history alike.

Amidst the many books written over the years about the Third Reich and German militaria, one subject has been largely overlooked - the subject of German military chaplains in World War II. Combining a large number of period photographs from private collections and photographs of chaplain items in collections around the world, Mark Hayden examines the moral dilemma of being a priest in Hitler's Germany and the duties and obligations of the German military chaplain. He also delves into the vast array of uniforms, insignia and awards of the German and Axis chaplains of World War II.
