Detailing the development of camouflage in the First and Second World Wars, it goes on to portray the full range of camouflage uniforms in use today. There are fifty large colour plates of classic camouflage patterns, and the book concludes with a unique catalogue of over four hundred colour photographs of the camouflage patterns used by the world's major armies.
