About this eBook
A World War II pictorial history of Nazi Germany’s armored fighting vehicles and exploration of their inner workings.
Using previously unpublished photographs, many of which have come from the albums of individuals who took part in the war, Hitler’s Panzers presents a unique visual account of Germany at arms. The book analyzes the development of the Panzer and shows how it became Hitler’s supreme weapon. It describes how the Germans carefully built up their assault forces utilizing all available reserves and resources and making them into effective killing machines. From the Panzerkampfwagen.1 to the most powerful tank of the Second World War, the Jagdtiger, the volume depicts how these machines were adapted and up-gunned to face the ever-increasing enemy threat. Hitler’s Panzers is a unique look into the full workings of the various light tanks, main battle tanks, self-propelled assault guns, and tank destroyers. It is a vivid, fully illustrated account of the development and deployment of the German tank, and brings together a captivating glimpse at the cutting edge of World War Two military technology.
