This is a fascinating book for those with a serious interest in armoured warfare and the development of British tanks prior to and during World War 2. It is filled with superb photographs and organisational charts and comparison tables. It highlights the shocking state of British tank design and production for most of World War 2, which is hard to understand considering Britain had some of the best tanks in the world after the First World War. The author, a former tank crew man, offers an excellent insight and a warning that a government should prepare well for war even in peace. This is well written but a serious and complex subject concentrating on technical details and design rather than tactics.
