In spite of the relatively small numbers involved, the Tiger I and
Tiger II tanks of the German Army and Waffen-SS heavy Panzer
formations played a central role in resisting the Allied invasion
of France in the summer of 1944\. British and American tank crews
found to their dismay that the Tigers could survive numerous hits
while a single round from one of their 88mm guns was enough to
penetrate the strongest armour. In his latest book in the TankCraft
series Dennis Oliver uses archive photographs and painstakingly
researched, exquisitely presented colour illustrations to examine
the part these powerful tanks played in the Normandy battles and
also the units that operated them. As with previous titles, a large
part of this book showcases available model kits and aftermarket
products and accessories, complemented by a gallery of skillfully
constructed and painted models. Descriptions of technical details
as well as modifications introduced during production and in the
field are also provided giving the modeller all the information and
knowledge required to recreate authentic miniature representations
of the Panthers that fought in the fields and hedgerows of Normandy
during the summer of 1944.
