Tank Action - George Forty - WWI WWII to Gulf War - Illustrated Military Hardback

Tank Action: From the Great War to the Gulf by George Forty.

A substantial, illustrated military history exploring more than 40 tank battles and armoured engagements, from the first tanks of the First World War through the Second World War and into the Gulf War.

Rather than simply cataloguing military vehicles, the book reconstructs individual battles from the perspective of the tank crews, examining how armoured warfare developed over nearly 80 years.

Covers WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, the Arab-Israeli conflicts and the Gulf War, featuring famous tanks including Shermans, Panthers and Tigers.

Illustrated with over 170 photographs, more than 50 maps and line drawings, alongside detailed accounts of tank battles and military operations.

A particularly interesting reference for enthusiasts of tanks, armoured warfare, military vehicles and Second World War history.

1995 BCA large-format hardback edition.

Very good condition, with light handling wear and minor rubbing around the edges and corners of the illustrated boards. Interior pages are clean and well preserved.

Collection available in Gorey, Co. Wexford, or postage anywhere in Ireland at the buyer's expense.
