Help with books on Balkan countries in WWII
« on: November 12, 2007, 10:01:59 AM »
Had a list of books on Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria in WWII. Misplaced the Hungary and Bulgaria lists. Anyone remember any books made on these nations involvement? Please post info here and will look for them if they are not presently being published.

Thanks

I have a book on the siege of Budapest from the Hungarian point of view.  I can bring it this weekend if you want to borrow it.

I think if you look at the reviews, the readers disappointment in not having a book full of combat action may show it is what you may be interested in.

I already have it in the collection due to the part on the Romanian army being mentioned in the different districts fighting. I rather liked the book.

Looking for the ones with info on the Hungarian army and Bulgarian army. Campaigns, divisions, equipment and use, etc. Found this one http://niehorster.orbat.com/000_admin/002_rha/002rha.htm
