Early on, tank-building nations experimented with different types of engines and designs. Germany lagged behind at first, but then began adapting Maybach engines - originally intended for use in trucks and luxury cars - even before the official rearmament began. Closely linked to this was the question of steerability, and details about all of these factors have been hard to find - until now: Michael Fröhlich devotes this in-depth reference work to the subject of German tank engines, as well as manual and steering transmissions. Many never-before-seen illustrations, technical drawings and sketches round off the volume.
