The World War One Source Book. Philip J. Haythronthwaite. 400 pages,
Brockhampton Press, 1998. The information on weapons and equipment is still
valid since the war occurred only a couple of years earlier. There is also
good data on the status of the various armies in 1914.

Athens, Greece, 1997. Covers the history of the elite rifle and light
infantry battalions of the Greek Army. The author also assisted on "Weapons
of the Balkan Wars, 1912-13" which was published by the War Museum in Athens
but I have been unable to find that book.
Uniforms of the Balkan Wars. Yannis Mylonas. 239 pages in Greek, ??
Athens, ~1999. A beautiful book full of color plates of the combatants
uniforms. Text is in Greek but nationalities are easy to identify. I am
thankful that my Greek clients provided a translation.
Bulgarian Military Uniforms During the Balkan Wars. I am unable to provide
additional data on the publication. It is a Squadron-Signal format booklet
of 48 pages with color uniform plates. It was written in Bulgarian with an
English Translation section. I was only able to obtain a copy of the English
text and Black and White uniform copies. I lost the bid on an ebay auction
but the winner was kind enough to provide me with the copy. It would be well
worth a search.
