Assuming that the reader has little prior knowledge of the history of British armored forces, Janice Tait and David Fletcher trace their development from their formation during WW1, through WWII and on to their role as an essential part of today's British army. Most importantly, they demonstrate how you can explore this history for yourself. The authors describe the records that are available and show how they can help you to reconstruct the career of a soldier who served in tanks or was connected with them. They also describe the kind of work the soldiers did, the armored vehicles they worked with, and the men and women they served alongside
This accessible, information-packed introduction to the history of British armored forces will be essential reading and reference for anyone who is researching this aspect of military history.

I mainly collect Railway/Transport/Military/nature and a large selection books of rare and a variety of non fiction material. Whether my books are rare or old almost all are in very good/as new condition, I will endeavour to lists all books to the exact description. I am at most times free to discuss any books, although due to being a full carer I may not answer my phone straight away but if you leave a forward number I will always reply to the call. I myself am now retired, I worked in passenger transport for just a little over 45 years both in the bus & Rail Industry achieving management status for the last seventeen years of my working career on the Railway. Working in passenger transport was something that i always wanted to do and was lucky enough to have achieved a career that gave me so much enjoyment. Apart from book collecting my other main hobby is gardening which helps me relax and reflect on my busy life being a full time carer for my wife of 49 years.…
