Reseña del editor:

"Tanks: Compared and Contrasted" is a highly-illustrated volume that examines the world's armoured fighting vehicles from their first combat use in 1916 to the present day. All the famous examples of tank types are featured, such as the Panther, Tiger and M1 Abrams. Many of the weapons described in "Tanks - Compared and Contrasted" are also accompanied by detailed colour profiles, which show the size and camouflage patterns of the vehicles. There are also full specifications tables that list country of origin, weights, dimensions and gun calibre (with all weights and measures provided in both metric and imperial). Spread throughout the book are 'head-to-head' comparisons between rival tank types, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. The type descriptions in "Tanks: Compared and Contrasted" give full design and development history of such weapons as the Sherman, Mark V, Churchill, T-72, Patton and Challenger, including - where relevant - their record in service. "Tanks: Compared and Contrasted" is a comprehensive and accessible reference work, which will appeal to anyone with an interest in armoured warfare.
