Description: Vintage 1968 German Tanks of World War II. The Complete Illustrated History of German Armoured Fighting Vehicles 1926-1945. Hardcover Book by Dr. F.M. von Senger and Etterlin. Under its original title Die deutschen Panzer 1926-45 this famous book by Dr. F. M. von Senger und Etterlin has long been regarded as the standard work on German tanks and armoured vehicles, and it is certainly one of the most comprehensive books ever produced on the AFVs of any nation.Contributions to the text are by Ing. W. J. Spielberger, a noted authority on German tanks who was closely involved with the engineering and development side of German armoured vehicles during World War II, and also by E. Aders.The book is appearing for the first time in a complete English language edition. The translation is by J. Lucas of the Imperial War Museum, working with Peter Chamberlain and Chris Ellis, who also contributed material about the Tiger. The English language editors have taken the opportunity to make some changes in presentation, mainly to claify the subject for non-German readers, but also to revise and expand certain aspects of the work. In the appendices at the end of the book there are tables for coverting metric weights and measures into their British and American equivalents.
