Description
Warriors for the Working Day is a gripping account of life in a tank crew during World War II. Based on the author's own experiences, the novel vividly evokes the claustrophobia, heat and intensity of tank warfare.
The story follows one crew as they navigate from the beaches of Normandy into newly liberated Western Europe, bringing to life the physical and emotional demands of their role.
This repackaged edition includes a contextual introduction by an Imperial War Museums historian, providing valuable context for readers new to the book or looking to deepen their understanding of this pivotal period in history.
