In 1944 the Maus giant battle tank, weighing almost 190 tons, was
supposed to help turn the Wehrmacht's fortunes of war on the
Eastern Front. Just two prototypes of this monster were delivered,
for its undeniable advantages-tremendous firepower and virtually
impenetrable armor-were outweighed by the disadvantages of its
slowness, excessive use of materials in construction, and fuel
consumption so high that it was, by that time, far beyond the
Germans' ability to supply. With this volume, Michael Froehlich
continues the legendary Spielberger series and delves into one of
the most curious military vehicles produced by Germany-the Maus
super-heavy tank. For the first time, this book tells the complete
story of this vehicle, including its inner workings, accompanied by
many previously unpublished illustrations. But that is not all: the
book includes another novelty, the complete operating instructions
for the tank's crew!
