Hi Edward ...Great subject ... The Panzer III was really the main battle tank for most of the African campaign ..They used most types of panzer III's Starting from late G's up to N's So you've got lots of options.. Tamiya make the L and the N models ...Dragon make a H ,J and N out of the box and I'm sure it won't be long before the Tropical G will be on it's way..(if not I'm sure you could find the tropical part to change their new G kit.)
Now if you are looking for a book the one that comes to mind is..
Battle line 1 WORKHORSE the Panzer III in North Africa
by Claude Gillono.

There are others but this one fits exactly what you are looking for .
