Tank Warfare: Strategy and Tactics - The Illustrated History of the Tank at War 1914-2000
by Christer Jorgensen

DESCRIPTION:
The first tank lumbered onto the battlefield in France during World War I. Less than 25 years later, its descendants were dashing across Europe as the spearhead of a new, mobile form of warfare. This illustrated history traces the development of tanks from 1914 prototypes to the high-tech vehicles used in the deserts of Iraq during the Gulf War. Accounts and analyses of major tank actions like the Blitzkrieg, Operation Barbarossa, the Battle of the Bulge, and the Arab-Israeli wars are interspersed with accounts of how military leaders like Rommel, Montgomery, and Patton utilized tanks and devised new battlefield tactics based on their capabilities. Also discussed are aborted experiments in armored warfare, the role of tanks during the Cold War, and possible designs and tactics of the future.
