Tigers I and II: Germany's Most Feared Tanks of World War II

Neither the Tiger I or the it's successor heavy tank, the Tiger II, was built in large numbers compared to Allied contemporaries like the Sherman or T-34, or even other German tanks like then Panzer III or IV. But that hasn't stopped the hulking vehicles with thick armor and big guns from being immensely popular modeling subject.

Join the legions of Tiger modelers and grab David Doyle's Tiger I and II: Germany's Most feared Tanks of World War II from Schiffer's Legends of Warfare series. Over the hardcover's 112 pages, David traces the development of both vehicles through scores of beautifully reproduced wartime photos, some from inside factories. The captions give lots of details about where and when the images were taken and mention pertinent details that can be seen. In addition, there are walkaround photos of surviving tanks in museums. It's a good reference filled with information and inspiration.
