Armored vehicles have come along way since their humble origins in World War I. Robert Jackson's Tanks and Armored Fighting Vehicles Visual Encyclopedia is a chronologically arranged tour of more than 1,200 tanks, jeeps, trucks, infantry and amphibious vehicles, self-propelled artillery and armored cars built in the last 100 years. From the Abrams Sherman tank to the Austin-Putilov armored car to the Jagdpanzer IV tank destroyer, each vehicle is illustrated with color artwork in profile or three-quarter view, showing in detail the different features and color schemes used. For anyone interested in this all-important facet of military hardware, Tanks and Armored Fighting Vehicles Visual Encyclopedia is an essential reference.
