Review
"this book is surprisingly detailed and well written, facts that make this a worthwhile book to have even for the most dedicated armor aficionado. For the modeler, the color profile illustrations will provide plenty of inspiration, in addition to the great stories told in the text. All told, this is a great addition to any armor bookshelf."--Internet Modeler
"an ambitious undertaking ... with a wealth of photos and illustrations, maps and specs worthy of every armor modeler's book shelf.... highly recommended and certainly excellent value for your money"--IPMS/USA
"... superb historical sections, profiles, quality period images, maps, and a well done write-up, it makes for an outstanding book that will appeal to both the historian and the modeler alike. You simply cannot go wrong with this one."--Modeling Madness
