Found this in my local The Works, half price at £10.00. Looks quite interesting on a quick flip through. They are not shrink wrapped, so you can always have a browse before making a decision. i thought it worth a punt.

I quite enjoy it because it is not small grainy black and white photographs but it is also most frustrating,
I keep expecting more detail and information over the next page but that is all there is and they have moved on,
And I would not claim to be all that knowledgeable about Tiger 1 Tanks but we all of us know more about them then this book tells or shows us and if it is missing out stuff that we all know about then what is being missed out on Armour we don't know about ?
And where is the Conqueror ?
The biggest single problem with this book is it is trying to cover a massive subject that will appeal to an audience without any in depth knowledge or experience,
It should be shorter and concentrate on its Title subject "TANKS" or embrace more volumes to properly cover the whole subject.
Like my old school reports used to say, "Could do better".
Shaun,
