I am grateful for the many and varied titles that have been placed before us BUT could I ask a small favour of the contributors to this thread,
Please include the ISBN for each book (International Standard Book Number) it makes ordering on line much easier :thumbup:
It will usually be found on the end plate or the frontispiece.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

I just bought this and although it's well known I thought I'd add it to the list as it is missing. Of course now I'll probably end up building a Abt.503 Tiger 1 :lolno:

Found this in a Barnes and Nobel yesterday. Not a Reference Book per se' but the Combat logs, stories and first hand information contained within are very useful reading. Not Picture heavy so settle in for a Good Read.
Tiger Battalion 507. Schneider and Forczyk
ISBN: 978-1-78438-496-8
