A nation-by-nation overview of each country's development of tanks and their involvement in World War II is before providing an A-Z of each army's tanks and fighting vehicles including armoured cars, personnel carriers, amphibious craft and mortar carriers. Quirkier profiles of vehicles such as the German TKS tankette are given. The profiles include technical specifications and the vehicle's strengths of design and limitations and are highly illustrated with maps, photographs and diagrams.
