This is the best collection of photos I have ever seen in one book showing not only the A7V and LK I/II, but the many examples of 'Beutepanzer', re-used British tanks. There are some sets of photos made from stills taken from newsreels and plenty of wrecks on the battlefield. Ideal for the armour enthusiast, and a feast of inspiration for modellers, especially with the variety of fine kits of WW1 tanks available in the marketplace these days. Interesting text plus extensive captions throughout the book, I have no hesitation in recommending this one.

For those of us who have studied WW2 for many years, it has largely been illustrated in black & white, with just a limited number of quite well known colour images that have been well used over the years. This shows us that many more colour images exist from that time, and it I think it gives quite a different viewpoint to see these much rarer examples, and together in such a large number. Historians and modellers alike will enjoy this one, and with the modeller in mind, some great inspiration for equipment and uniform detail as well as many diorama ideas. I think this one is sure to be popular.

“…a valuable addition to the historical record. The Luftwaffe officer's account for being selected for the May 1945 submarine trip to Japan also proved interesting from a "last gasp" point of view.”
