5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest books on the Tiger II, 27 May 2002

By	"panzerworld-net" - See all my reviews

Despite its small size, this book is one of the most valuable books about the Tiger II. It deals with many of the rumours and wrong information very clearly, and leaves the reader with a good impression about the vehicle.
The book contains information about the technical history of the Tiger II, as well as some information about the manoeuvrability and frontline survivability. The chapter about the operational history is perhaps a bit thin, but it is concise, and will serve most readers desires. Somewhat larger pictures would have been nice, but the information pressed into the 48 pages is still impressive.
With 8 beautiful colour plates (including 3-way drawings and one cut-away), lots of photos and scale drawings, this is also a book useful for modellers.

Very much recommended to anyone interested in the Tiger II, as well as Panzer in general!
