Review: One aspect of war told well
Rating: 4 out of 5

I hold a very unequivocal view on war – it’s best avoided; but I guess sometimes it’s forced upon us and there is nothing much to do but respond to it , in consequence I don’t like the topic at all. So I was skeptical about enjoying this book, but was proved otherwise.I have a very rough idea about how the war works (it’s expected) but while reading this book which only deals with one aspect of the war I realized just how many aspects need to be kept in mind while waging war. If you have a special interest in warfare and the makings of a war, this book could be a good read. It deals with the use of tanks in World War 2 and how it came into use, which battle saw its first use, how the Allies and the Axis Powers competed over each other to develop the tank we see today, etc. For me this is a different take on World War 2 and very informative.
