The first of these three books on the M3 is the most recent, a hardbound volume similar in detail to the now- out-of-print Son of Sherman tome. This is a qute comprehensive book on the M3. The second and third books are likely now (2021) only to be available on the second hand bookseller market. Squadron/Signal sold out most of its stock of In Action and Walk Around paperbacks to David Doyle, who sold many of the remaining of those series through his own business, [url]https://daviddoylebooks.com/[/url.]

Re: M3 Lee (US) Grant (British)
The AFV publications book is the one I am reading now. Very I interesting read but no scale drawings or side profiles. Not cheap either. There is a book of just drawings for around £12 but that only has one set of drawings for the Grant, all the others being the Lee which is why I think the old Airfix/PSL book is such good value if you can find a cheap one.
Frankly I’m surprised that there hasn’t been a Tankcraft volume but then the M3 Light Stuart/Honey hasn’t been done by that series yet either
