Fellow collectors and friends,

I would like to congratulate Mauro for a job well done on his book. I give him individual merit for the hard work he put into his book, and I am not saying this just because I am a close friend who helped him with the project by donating images, ideas and labor. I know for a fact that other members on the Luger Forum played a major role as well, and their contributions were also valuable. In my opinion, the input from various knowledgeable experts determines the success of a book.

I appreciated his explanation of theories, fact, history, photos and the various pistols displayed in the book, and I hope that other Luger books will be written in the future on the same lines. Tom, I am looking forward to your book on the Navy Lugers! I also admit that a good book motivates me to search harder for a certain type of Luger pistol, and ironically I am still searching for that near mint and all matching LP08 which I have not yet found for my collection!

It is a delight to see that the legacy of the Luger pistol still remains strong.

Cheers,
Albert

I concur whole heartedly with Albert... Mauro's book is excellent and well worth the money...

Absolutely GREAT photographs.
