Panzer 3 and it's variants/Spielberger ~ Written on May 18, 2009. 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
What can be said? Since I have been a modeler/history lover (45yrs.) Spielbergers works have been considered the top of the line as far as details go.If you are looking for the unit histories or battle tactics of these tanks than this isn't the book;or series of books for you .If you are looking for the technical stuff that I love, then Spielberger is for you!Panzer 3 and it's variants is one of the early books in this series and it covers the whys as to the creating of this vehicle very well. All the tech stuff is there as mentioned with some history as to use of the tank.If details matter then get this book.T.M.L.
Target, cease fire! ~ Written on May 8, 2000. 12 out of 12 users found this review helpful.
Panzer III & Its Varients is THE book to buy about this German Tank of WWII. All of the models and varients are captured- the prototypes, production tanks- in many excellent scale drawings, cut aways and photos.
What makes this book so excellent is the quality of the photos and line drawings. Everything is covered in a single source- hull, chassis, powerplant, suspension, turret, armament, armor, equipment- it's all there.
Two minor irritants, first is that many of the line drawings have not been translated from the German orginal. Secondly, many of the photos & drawings about the Sturmgeshutz (self propelled gun varient) are duplicated in Spielbergers work on the Sturmgeshutz.
An excellent work, a valuable collection to anyone's collection, highly recommended.
