Deutsche Panzer: German Tanks in World War I (1917-1918) ABT 720

Although the German Army used only a handful of tanks during World War I, they receive significant interest from modellers and historian alike. Deutsche Panzer: German Tanks in World War I gives an insight into the tank service in the Germany Army in 1917-1918 and offers a detailed look at the history and colour schemes of the only German-designed tank in World War I: the A7V. The book also includes a number of captured tanks used by the Germans. The book is lavishly illustrated with rare archive photos, numerous colour profiles and scale drawings in 1:35 and 1:87 scales.
