DESCRIPTION

The last of Britain's infantry tanks, the Churchill, fought in every major battlefield from the sands of North Africa, through France and Germany to the rugged hills of Korea. A detailed double page full cutaway shows the internal workings of the tank.
The Churchill was undoubtedly one of the most successful British tanks of the Second World War. Although it suffered from being underarmed, a defect common to most British armoured vehicles of the period, it was nevertheless loved by its crews: its cross-country ability was unrivalled and it was less inclined to 'brew-up' from a direct hit than the Sherman. It was also adaptable. Modified Churchills played a crucial part in the initial D-Day landings and in the subsequent advance through France. Bryan Perrett traces the life of this slow-moving but effective and respected tank from its initial inception through till its eventual obsolescence.
