Title: Thorough and Honest Critique Of British tanks
Review: This book is part one of two by David Fletcher, who is the currator at the British Tank Museum in Bovington. He is an expert on British armor.The book starts in 1939 and explores all types of armored vehicles the British produced frm 1939-1942. It shows how & why their equipment was inferior to the Germans and American vehicles. A lot of B&W; photos, line drawings help illustrate what the author is saying. This is not a book for modelers, not enough details. But it really shows how the soldiers, bureaucrats, politicians, industry types all muddled things up and the tankers paid the price. Ironic since the Brits invented the tank and spearheaded many of the tactical ideas that led to Blitzkreig.Definately recommend for armor collectors/historians.
