Summary
This book examines the early development of German armored forces through the Panzer I and II tanks, which formed the foundation of Hitler's Panzerwaffe. Using rare wartime photographs from archives, Anthony Tucker-Jones documents how these light tanks, despite their limitations, played crucial roles in the early Blitzkrieg campaigns. The book covers their technical specifications, combat deployment, and operational history from the Spanish Civil War through the early stages of World War II, illustrating how these vehicles helped establish German armored warfare doctrine and tactics.
