World War Ii Tanks

This is a comprehensive, country-by-country guide to the tanks of World War II. Illustrated with historical photography and packed with interesting technical data and descriptions, this book is the authority on the tank warfare of the period.

From Somaliland to Japan. A nation-by-nation overview of each country’s development of tanks and their involvement in the second world war. This is followed by an A–Z of each army’s tanks and fighting vehicles including armoured cars, personnel carriers, amphibious craft and mortar carriers as well as quirkier profiles of vehicles such as the little-known Renault AMR-ZB. Profiles include technical specifications and the vehicle’s strengths of design and limitations. Highly illustrated with maps, photographs and diagrams.

The author is a widely respected authority on military vehicle engineering.
