Review:

An excellent and very detailed look at the design and combat history of the German Imperial Army’s response to the Allied introduction of tanks. That was a run-on sentence, but you see I’m stoned off me tits.

Along with the very extensively researched text, the rare archival photos are amazing.

While primarily focused on the A7V, there were a few other attempts at tanks. Most never made it past the prototype stage, but even the A7V was limited to 20 units.

This will be a valuable reference for my Great War dioramas.

This book made me want to: not drive or even be inside an A7V
