Tiger tanks were among the most-feared fighting vehicles of the
Second World War and they gained almost legendary status, yet they
never fulfilled their potential because they were not produced in
sufficient numbers and the tide the war had turned against the
German army by the time they were introduced. Often they were
deployed in difficult circumstances and in defensive battles,
struggling against the odds. Nowhere was this more true than in
western Europe during the Allied advance across France and into
Germany, and it is the Tigers of this phase of the war that Dennis
Oliver portrays in his third volume on the Tiger in the TankCraft
series. He uses archive photos and extensively researched colour
illustrations to examine the Tiger tanks and units of the German
Army and Waffen-SS heavy panzer battalions that struggled to resist
the onslaught of Allied armour and air attacks during the last days
of the conflict. A key section of his book displays available model
kits and aftermarket products, complemented by a gallery of
beautifully constructed and painted models in various scales.
Technical details as well as modifications introduced during
production and in the field are also examined providing everything
the modeller needs to recreate an accurate representation of these
historic tanks.
