4.0 out of 5 stars Relatively Good for new readers in such area of interest, September 1, 1998
By A Customer
I personally like this book alot.It is because this book covers the subject(german tanks) directly like the panzer 1 to 4, tiger 1 & 2,panthers and it even cover a little on experimental tanks like the Maus. What make this book stand out from the rest I think that it even include some extractions and feelings from the people who fought and operated them unlike many other books which is too techincal for my personal liking. however, on the down side, this book covers quite a small number of photos which may disappoint model kits builder but trust me it is enough for most readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent treatise on WWII German armor., July 29, 2002
By JAG 2.0 (IN United States) - See all my reviews
George Forty has done an excellent job of giving the reader a balance between "just the facts" treatment of German armor and first-hand accounts of their use. All the statistics are there: height, weight, weapons, upgrades, modifications, etc. There is also an analysis of the weapon's effectiveness - with a first-hand account of combat in each vehicle.

An excellent treatment of German armor in WWII for all but the most detail-oriented modeller.
