About the Book

During WW2 the Willys MB and Ford GPW "jeep" were used over the entire world. Most of the time they were used as open vehicles. But in some extremely cold climates the jeep was equipped with heaters and full enclosures to protect the crew. This book covers the winterization gear used on the jeeps.
About the Author: Robert Notman was born in Indiana, grew up in New Albany, Indiana; Little Rock, Arkansas; and Clinton, Michigan. He entered the US Air Force at 18 and became a Pharmacy Technician. As a tech he met his future wife, Blanca, working in the same hospital. After graduating from Troy State University, he re-entered the USAF as an officer. He has served in Ohio, Florida, North Dakota and Alaska. He retired from the Air Force in 1996. In 1980, Robert purchased his first military jeep. It was a Korean era jeep or M38A1. After leaving the military he sold the jeep. He promptly realized that was a mistake and looked around to found another old jeep. The jeep he found was called a "1941 Willies" jeep by the seller. After getting it home, he learned it was a 1942 Ford GPW. He hadn't even realized that Ford made jeeps! This singular event started a road of discovery that had led Robert into editing or writing several WW2 jeep related books. His works includes: Automotive Trouble Shooting for WW2 Wheeled Vehicles: Volume One and Two; Bantam, Ford and Willys--1/4-Ton Reconnaissance Cars; Military Maintenance for MB/GPW Jeeps 1941-45; WW2 Pilot Model-The Ford Pygmy; Winter and the Willys MB/Ford GPW; and Jeep - Its development and procurement under the Quartermaster Corps, 1940-1942(edited). He has also written articles for Military Vehicles Magazine, Army Motors and others. Robert continues to work on books and articles covering the WW2 jeeps and related subjects.
