After the war the Jeep, a small military vehicle then mostly unknown to the general public, suddenly became central to the vision of the postwar period. Made famous in magazines and newspapers world-wide, the Jeep was on everything from writing paper, matchboxes and playing cards, and seemed to invade America before conquering the world. This fabulous new book from Histoire et Collections perfectly captures the mood of that period immediately after the war with its lavish full colour illustrations. About the Author The author, Jerome Hadacek is known for both his 1 / 48 and 1 / 10 scale models, and is passionate about tanks and jeeps. He has published extensively as a freelance writer on 4x4 vehicles.
