The Stuart light tanks were the first tanks taken into combat by US
troops during WWII. Production of these vehicles can be broken into
two categories: the early tanks powered by air-cooled radial
engines, and late versions powered by twin V-8 engines. This volume
explores the early, air-cooled vehicles, the M3, M3A1, and M3A3.
Widely used both by the US Army and US Marines, as well as many
Allied nations, these tanks, though lightly armed and armored, were
mechanically sound and did much to stem the tide of Axis aggression
during the early stages of the US entry into WWII. Through dozens
of archival photos, including previously unpublished images, as
well as detailed photographs of some of the finest existing
examples of these vehicles, this early-war combat vehicle is
explored and its history is explained. A companion volume will
explore the later M5 and M5A1, and M8 Howitzer Motor Carriage
versions. Part of the Legends of Warfare series.
