Critics Review
This is an interesting and well-written story that offers a fresh perspective on a well-trodden aspect of the World War II armour. * Military Modelcraft International *
the detail is excellent and will be of service both to historian and the more skilled modeller. Both of whom will find it invaluable. The latter will particularly appreciate the well-chosen photographs and Richard Chasemore’s excellent illustrations. * Army Rumour Service *
Two-thirds of the book compares design, development, technical characteristics, crew training, and organization of the opponent tanks. * Tankette *
A superb reference piece for armour historians * Classic Military Vehicle Magazine *
Of particular benefit to wargamers is the extensive analysis of Soviet tank availability, training and logistics. * Miniature Wargames *
