The history of armoured fighting vehicles over the last hundred years. Beginning in World War I, the most important tanks of the great military powers of Germany, France, Great Britain, the USA and Russia are presented. The focus is on the rich visual material, ranging from historical bw photographs to colour pictures of tanks in museums or private collections. Operational pictures show why no army in the world can still do without tanks. Concise texts inform about the development of the tank weapon as well as about all worth knowing technical details and special features of the respective vehicles. In addition to the countries mentioned, tanks from other countries are also covered, including Switzerland, Italy, Israel, the former Czechoslovakia, Japan, Australia, Sweden, South Korea and Canada.
