Gottlieb draws on a body of over 200 examples to document currently believed notions about the ring. He offers never before seen photos and documents, and even develops many new well-reasoned theories about the Totenkopf (Death Head) ring.

The book also covers the pre-history of the Totenkopf ring, placing its appearance onto the “SS Scene” in historical context.

Also covered are design background, construction techniques, and an in-depth analysis of the physical characteristics of rings. Gottlieb also includes sections on award documents and frames, ring shipping boxes, and provides many never-before-seen photographs of rings in wear.

Finally, he brings rings to life with an extensive “personality profile” chapter in which he illustrates several famous rings.
