The birth of the German Panzerwaffe in World War One is for many enthusiasts mostly
linked to Germany's own development, the A7V. However, it is hard fact that most of
the tanks serving on the
German side in the Great War were of British origin. Captured British Mk.IV Beute-Tanks
shaped the core of German ambitions towards an own armoured corps. This
two-volume publication grants for the first time a truly comprehensive look into the
capture and deployment of these vehicles.
