Tiger ! - the very name that Allied troops feared. It came to symbolize the superiority of German tank design. This book has been created as a photo essay showing the best available and rare photographs of Tigers with units at the front. No tank that the Allies fielded in World War II was comparable to this combination of the 88mm gun with massive armor protection. Allied tankers didn't think that they stood a chance of defeating these formidable Tigers. They only hoped that these heavy tanks would breakdown, become immobilized in soft ground, or be damaged by lucky hits on vulnerable points.

If you like armor, this is great stuff. Jentz is probably the foremost authority on the Tiger, and he shows it again here. It's mostly pictures, large format, but what pictures they are! Clearly captioned, they provide endless entertainment for the armor nut and the modeler.

Truely a photo essay of Tigers that all AFV modeller's will find something to add to their projects. There are hundreds of beautifully taken photos that had never seen anywhere before. If you are looking for detailed written info about the Tiger tanks then this is not the book for you. All the photos have some short explanations beside them. A must have for the WWII collector and the modeller. Top quality book.
