At the outbreak of war in 1939 British tank crews were
ill-equipped, under trained and badly led. As a consequence the
lives of hundreds of crewmen were wasted unnecessarily. This was
due not only to the poor design and construction of British tanks,
but also to the lack of thought and planning on the part of
successive pre-war governments and the War Office. Death by Design
explores how and why Britain went from leading the world in tank
design at the end of the First World War to lagging far behind the
design quality of Russian and German tanks in the Second World War.
This book is a much-needed warning to governments and military
planners: a nation must always be prepared to defend itself and
ensure that its soldiers are equipped with the tools to do so.
