World War II Japanese Tank Tactics (Elite)
"World War II Japanese Tank Tactics is indeed a great resource for learning how the Japanese WW2-era tank doctrine came to be." -Peter Chen,World War 2 Database(March 2009)"...appears for the first time in the English language, using original Japanese sources to detail the battles and strategies of the Imperial Japanese Army's tank units." -The Midwest Book Review(January 2009)"Author Rottmann and Takizawa cover the full range of units, tactics and equipment used by the Japanese during the war. Some of the results you may find quite surprising, while others are more as expected. Superbly illustrated by Peter Dennis in showing tactical movements and combined with what few period photographs are still extant on the subject, the reader gets a better idea of what these men and their equipment were like. I found the book to be particularly interesting as so little has been written on the subject for Western readers. It is a book I know you'll find of interest and is highly recommended." -Scott Van Aken,modellingmadness.com(November 2008)"Any aficionado of armor warfare will appreciate this book. The details in tactics and types of armor in the Imperial Japanese Army are excellent ... In addition to the detailed text, the book is full of color diagrams and black and white photographs (many from Japanese archives - never seen by Western publishers) ... [and] an excellent reference for knowing and understanding how Japanese armor was used in World War II." -Jeff Grim,CollectedMiscellany.com(October 2008)
