An exhilarating kaleidoscope of artists fooling around, making visual puns, tricking society, and conjuring up novel solutions - all tucked into the margins of this astonishing untold history of military camouflage. I had no idea that both Picasso and Matisse assisted their navies in designing new camouflage patterns. This collection of visual wit is really a how-to book on the best way for serious people to employ artists.
