In peace as in war. Buttons are an important part of every uniform. The author describes their history from 1713 to the present. The town of Lüdenscheid, whose industrial development was strongly influenced by the button industry, supplied armed forces on land, at sea and in the air with uniform buttons. They reflect political history, fundamental historical change and a central aspect of European cultural history, namely the process of militarisation in its most diverse manifestations. History from the perspective of the military uniform button is a new and exciting approach to German military and cultural history. Published by the Cultural Department of the City of Lüdenscheid, Lüdenscheid 2005.
