|
Valuable contemporary account by an officer who won the MC with the 7th Bn. Contains detailed accounts of a large number of tank actions, including, from personal experience, the Cockcroft, Cambrai, Bourlon Wood, 1918 battles &c. "...his best chapters are those of an eye-witness. He is at times severely critical & perhaps even unjust, though he has obviously tried not to be. For the reader who contemplates tackling one book only on tanks in the War this is probably the best, for Captain Browne is a lucid & entertaining writer." - Falls. Orig. blue cloth, sp. tanned/faded o/w VG & rare. See illustration on our website.
