EARLY IDF SANDWICH TRUCKS AND IMPROVISED ARMOURED VEHICLES

By Tom Gannon, 90 pages, approximately 260 photographs.

This Trackpad Photo Album tells the story of the early sandwich trucks and improvised armored vehicles.  

Carefully researched and detailed captions put photographs in their historical context.

Israeli engineers did not have true armor plate, so they improvised with wood sandwiched between metal sheets. Makeshift fighting vehicles evolved into improvised armored vehicles.

Weapons and vehicles came from a variety of sources, beginning with the British, and then through acquisition teams who traveled the globe searching.

Armored vehicles were the most difficult to come by, so the various defense organizations and the members of the kibbutzim and moshavim had to improvise. Later, local factories joined the effort, developing skills that came in handy as the war extended.

Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I've been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I'll tell you straight off if it's a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it's a bookclub, like university press books. They don't normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher's edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let's face it, most of the publisher's editions these days aren't all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse!
