Action Man: By Land, Sea and in the Air
Neil Taylor

Action Man was introduced into Britain in 1966 and quickly became known as the best equipped, most realistic fighting man the world has ever seen - almost a foot tall with moveable parts. Focusing mostly on military uniforms, author Neil Taylor has photographed Action Man in many different outfits, all in real-life situations, giving the book immediate appeal. In addition, the collector is well catered for as details of the uniforms and equipment are carefully described and illustrated, with notes on special features. From frozen alps to tropical seashores and jungles, Action Man is ready to save the world.
