Made up of the first hand recorded memories of actual Great War Tank Corps veterans with many rare and unpublished photos. Hand signed by the author, the text of this new book is made up of actual word for word accounts from British Tank Corps veterans who were interviewed and recorded in the 1980s. These men tell their own stories of life, training and fighting in the world's first tanks form 1916 to 1918. Packed full of photographs, many of which are previously unpublished, and factual information about the use of the world's first fighting tanks. These men are all now long since gone, but they were actually there at the front in these first primative machines and these previously unpublished stories cover several different marks of tanks, many different battles and give an unpresidented glimpse into the Tank Corps of 90 years ago. This book is 101 pages and is from the same author who brought you the acclaimed Landships of Lincoln. It is professionally printed, published and produced with laminated covers that feature the splendid 'WW1 British Tanks in Action' painted by the world famous artist Robin Wheeldon. Limited printing run of 1,000 copies only.
