Title: Good panzer book, translation is a bit clumsy
Review: I have read many books about the Waffen SS and Wehrmacht, and 'Tigers in the Mud' is certainly very good - insofar as content and storytelling goes. But the translation seems tedious and uses many expressions that are obviously literally translated without the effort of smoothing the narration into colloquial American English. Almost all such books are translated from the original German (or sometimes French), but I don't remember ever encountering a publication as "tedious" or "clumsy" as this one.I am fairly fluent in German and can imagine what many of the expressions would have been in the original text, but can also imagine how they would have been better expressed for the American reader.Otherwise, it is a great resource for the panzer afficionado. Some good pictures also.
