This is the complete history of Israeli tanks and armoured soldiers, spanning from the First World War to the present day. Included are hundreds of photos, maps, tables and diagrams. In addition to all this visual and technical information, the authors have also included a detailed narrative of the history of the Israeli armoured corps and its predecessor organisations. All major commanders are introduced and the most important battles and missions are described in detail. The IDF is exceptional not only for its combat successes, but also for the variety of vehicles it deployed, including both domestic and foreign models from around the world. These include the American "Sherman" and M60, the British "Cromwell" and "Centurion", the French AMX-13 and finally the indigenous "Merkava", to name but a few.
