Foreign maps, by Everett C. Olson and Agnes Whitmarsh, New York and London, Harpers, 1944.
This little book is a wonderful overview of the characterisstics and symbols on "foreign" maps from around the world. It belongs in any map collection that has a supply of WW2 vintage paper maps...ah, the good old days.
Amazon has 14 copies, search foreign maps olson and it will pop up.

"Tactical and Technical Trends" was published by the U.S. Military
Intelligence Service in WWII from June 1942 to June 1945. Publication
was initially biweekly, and later monthly. "Tactical and Technical
Trends" covered much of the same material as the Intelligence
Bulletin, although generally more in-depth. The same articles
frequently appeared in both publications.
