I found it VERY helpful and would certainly recommend it. I use mine virtually every day. It is sooooooo cheap that you could buy TWO or even three copies. Then use one as your bench copy, one in your library and another to keep just in case.
I was told that this is the authorititive book on this subject, certainly for British Service, being taken straight from an old copy of the 'Equipment Regulations for Quartermasters'. There are some out there who know more that the Official Government publication of course, but with this book, you will be a good runner-up

Holzhacker, yes, it is a good book to have, quick and easy, even though the Author gets a bit carried away sometimes, his info is spot on.
Thanks to both of you, I ordered my copy this AM. Holzhacker

In fact Brian, if you have spare copies fopr sale of that rare, authoritative, cheap and well written little book that is straight from the horses mouth - or at least, straight from the 1941 Equipment Regulations, maybe you could spread the good word and do a little review of it for the Forum. If my memory is correct, I think it's a self publication titled THE IDENTIFICATION OF BUTTSTOCK MARKING DISCS IN BRITISH SERVICE. 1900 - 1944. By, er....., I forget his name now

Peter Laidler, the author of the book you mention is Capt. Peter Laidler. I read somewhere he was a cook or something in the British military.
