Product Description
This volume tells of the difficult birth of a whole new weapon. From the schemes and plans of the mid-19th century to the introduction of the first tanks into service and their baptism of fire. The tank went on to become an important feature in World War II and in modern warfare. The author tells of the experiments, the design and production of the early tanks and their use in the battlefield up to and beyond the Armistice.
