The German Military Book publisher, Tankograd, have just announced their September 2007 releases which include a couple of interesting 'departures'.
The annual 'War and Peace' Military Vehicle Rally at Beltring, England, is a superb source for modelers to get 'up close and dirty' with an enormous number of preserved military vehicles. Of course, it's not possible for all enthusiasts to get there so the next best thing is to visit it through published photos. In an unusual departure for Tankograd, they are publishing:

From Normandy to Beltring The book contains 120 photos of a selection of the visiting vehicles to the Beltring Show. The book is 128 pages in length with 120 color photos.

The next continues an occasional series they have published in hardback format:

Encyclopedia of Modern U. S. Military Tactical Vehicles The book, in its 160 pages covers what it says - U.S. Tactical vehicles. It includes 416 colour photos and its chapter headings are as follows:

.01 Introduction

.02 Light Tanks and Main Battle Tanks

.03 Armored Infantry Fighting Vehicles and
Armored Personnel Carriers - Tracked

.04 Armored Personnel Carriers - Wheeled

.05 Amphibious Vehicles

.06 Light Trucks

.07 Medium Trucks

.08 Heavy Trucks

.09 Engineer Vehicles and Mine Protected Vehicles

.10 Armored Recovery Vehicles, Cranes and
Material Handling Equipment

.11 Artillery and Air Defence

.12 Special Forces and All-Terrain Vehicles

.13 Miscellaneous Vehicles

.14 Camouflage and Markings


The next book is printed in a familiar format to the majority of the company's titles:

5017 - Marder - The Armoured Infantry Fighting Vehicle of the Modern German Army

Consisting of 64 (+4) pages, the book contains 86 colour and 39 black&white photos.
