Description
This book takes readers into the evolutionary process that occurs in every major tank-producing nation in the world--America, Germany, England, France, and Russia—via a series of black and white and color images from World War I through today. To back up the images there are specifications on many of the better-known tanks as well as factoid boxes that explain many of the features that make up the tanks.
