these lethal machines were among the boldest and most feared of World War
II.

German tank officers. Extensively researched, these gripping accounts
follow panzer crews into some of the bloodiest engagements of World War II
- with Rommel in the deserts of North Africa, at the monumental battle of
Kursk, in the hedgerows of France and in frightening small-unit clashes in
the black of night on the Eastern Front. Master tacticians and gutsy
leaders, these soldiers changed the face of war forever.

Panzerkrieg - The
Rise and Fall of Hitlers Tank Divisions by Peter McCarthy and Mike Syron.
Blitzkrieg. For many the word conjures up a vision
of massed columns of tanks sweeping through Europe, smashing all
resistance, relentless caterpillar treads leaving a trail of devastation
in their wake. War historians agree that it was the Panzer
divisions achievements that were largely responsible for Germanys early
run of success in the Second World War and, once the tide of fortune had
begun to turn against the Reich, the Panzers subsequently became the
very backbone of its defence. The dramatic story of Hitlers tank
divisions is more than one of mere mechanical efficiency. It is
also about those who commanded and fought, and believed in their near
invincibility. These are the men who come to life in this
immensely readable narrative - great generals like Guderian, Rommel and
Manstein, tank aces like Wittmann and Bake, and inspired commanders like
Balck and Bayerlein dominate the story of Panzerkrieg. Dispensing
with jargon, but including explanatory maps, rare illustrations and
fascinating detail on uniforms, crew members and mechanical features of
the machines, the authors give a comprehensive overview of all aspects
of the subject, both human and technical. They have also benefited
from new information available since the opening of cold war
archives. Emerging from the narrative is the whole vast canvas of
the war, as it follows the titanic struggles which ranged between the
Bocage country of France, the desert wastes of North Africa, and the
limitless steppes of Russia. The development of German fighting
vehicles and tactics is fully charted, and the many myths and
misconceptions that have grown up around the Panzerwaffe are
exploded. Extensive research, reference to the memoirs of leading
participants, and original new conclusions all contribute to this finely
measured assessment of the evolution, exploits and eventual destruction
of this superlative fighting force.
Illustrated hardback book with 332 pages.

Sturmgeschütz III
& IV 1942-1945 by Hilary Doyle, Tom Jentz, Mike Fuller and Peter
Sarson
As the Second World War dragged on, heavy German losses in armoured
vehicles and tanks ensured that assault gun units had to play an
increasingly vital role in supporting the beleaguered infantry and
countering Allied armour, particularly on the Eastern Front. The
Sturmgeschütz was one of the most numerously produced and effectively
deployed of the German armoured vehicles. Total production of the Ausf. G
alone was close to 7,000 vehicles, a further 1,299 were equipped with the
10.5cm gun as self-propelled howitzers. This book reveals how the
Sturmgeschütz provided the backbone of Germany's armoured forces in every
theatre and on every front during the long fighting retreat of the final
years of the war.

Jagdpanzer 38 'Hetzer'
1944-1945 by Hilary Doyle, Tom Jentz and Mike Badrocke
The JAgdpanzer 38 is one of the best known German armoured fighting
vehicles from World War II. Rushed into serious production in the record
time of less than four months, it was instantly recognisable by the sleek
appearance created by its well-sloped armour. Many experts in post war
armour hold the opinion that this tank destroyer was just the answer to
Germany's problem of dealing with the numerically superior American M4
Medium tank (known to the British Army as the Sherman) and the Russian
T-34.
