The series of Panzerwrecks books has its twentieth member ready to be shipped this month. The new volume focuses on the Eastern Front and deals as usual with abandoned and destroyed vehicles.
The book brings 98 rare and unpublished large format photographs from Russian archives, 49 wartime sketches and specially commissioned artwork by Felipe Rodna.
Nearly every photograph is from an album unearthed from the depths of a Russian archive, and was produced by the 17th Air Army during their evaluation of the effects of aircraft weapons on German (and Hungarian) tanks in the field. No test reports on training grounds and firing ranges here - everything is based on genuine after-action and field reports. Not only have been included the photographs and data from the captions, but many of the accompanying sketches too.
