Description
Tank Men by Robert Kershaw The tank's impact on warfare has been profound, and its story is one of human experience as much as technical innovation. In this authoritative account, ex-soldier and military historian Robert Kershaw brings to life the grime, the grease and the fury of a tank battle through the voices of ordinary men and women who lived and fought in those fearsome machines. Drawing on vivid, newly researched personal testimony from key battles of both World Wars, Tank Men offers a unique perspective on this pivotal aspect of military history. The narrative is balanced, taking testimony from all sides of conflict, and combines human stories with technical detail and historical context. This book provides a gripping insight into the realities of fighting inside a tank, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in military history or the technology behind modern warfare.
