Book Review

Panzer Regiments - by W. J. K. Davies

by Don Lowry


Almark publishes this 8" x 10", 52-page paperback volume. It is a pictorial study of the equipment and organization of German WWII panzer regiments. For the most part I found it disappointingly lacking in any definite, detailed information about specific formations at specific times. Instead, it contains mostly generalizations and information readily obtainable in numerous other books by Almark, Squadron/Signal, etc., especially the approximately half of the book devoted to describing the panzer regiments' equipment - tanks, self-propelled guns, machine guns, etc. The main value of the book lies in its numerous black and white photos, line drawings, charts, and two pages of full color uniform illustrations. I don't know the book's price - probably around $5.00. I t should be available at most hobby shops or from the Squadron Shop, Dept. C, 3461 East TenMile Road, Warren, MI 48091.
