About this product

Product Information

Probably the most famous tank of the World War II, the Tiger I was originally conceived in 1941 in response to the German Army's experience in fighting British tanks and anti-tank guns in Western Europe and the North African desert. Following the invasion of Russia, the appearance of the Soviet T-34 and KW tanks lent a further impetus to the programme. The Tiger's power and performance on the battlefield is emphasised by tables of relevant performance throughout the book, which clearly show the battlefield survivability of the Tiger and its superiority to many allied tank designs. This comprehensive and extremely detailed text is accompanied by a fine selection of black and white photographs showing the tank in use.

Informative read with great illustrations
Technically GREAT, bit of a hard read first time due to my lack of German Language, found google Translator helpful and made a lot more sense with my sheet of paper folded inside book for easy access to the words I didn't understand first time round. Particularly good reading what Divisions / Companys / units had what Tanks at their disposal and in which theater of war they were engaged in. As a bonus there is a great photo of the Tiger1 on the day it was captured pictured from above which now lives at Bovington Tank Museum in Dorset (Tiger 131). One of those books you WILL read more than just a few times as it gets better each time.
