While there are undoubtedly far more detailed unit histories out there, this book is useful in providing a clear history of every unit in one place. The benefits for this format are immense, as it forms a beautiful introduction to the motorised divisions, as well as a nice big picture type of overview, useful to those looking beyond individual units or specific battles. I can see this title becoming a valuable addition to any armour library as a result --Internet Modeler.com, 10/2007
