From the publisher: One of the most feared weapons of World War II, Germany’s Tiger tank was a beast that dominated the battlefields of Europe with its astonishing size, speed, and firepower — and continues to fascinate more than 70 years after it was first designed. Revealing its design and development history, Anderson draws upon German archival material to tell the Tiger’s story and analyzes its success on the battlefield. Modifications and variants are illustrated in photographs and drawings of the pride of the Panzer Korps.

FSM says: Modelers will draw inspiration from seeing details and settings showing the Tiger in its many guises, from the Eastern Front to the hedgerows and hamlets of Normandy. The tank’s development, armor, maintenance, and combat are narrated and traced through photos and drawings.
