Volume three doesn't disappoint and is as excellent as volumes 1 and 2. Many previously unseen photographs.

Continuing the theme of German ground forces in the Italian campaign, volume 3 has important data on Panzer IV, including older sub-variants down to platoon level in 26th Panzer Division. The book is not just a collection of quality photos, but includes random Kriegsgliederung and tank strength charts on set dates, some of which I've not seen elsewhere. For example the text details which company had Panzer IVs in the Hermann Goring Panzer Regiment in Sicily, information not presented in books actually dedicated to the division. The Panzer IV section covers the first 88 pages of the book. There follows chapters on StuG IV, Nashorn, Hummel, Jagdpanzer IV, Brummbar, armoured cars, taking the reader to page 203. Infantry divisions are not ignored and the issue of panzerjagers to divisional anti-tank battalions is covered. Chapter 17 from page 205 is a little different, as it is titled Soldiers and Commanders, and has photos of infantry, officers, horse drawn supply wagons, a fine photo-essay for the uniformologist, and a reminder that the Wehrmacht wasn't just all about mechanisation. The book rounds out with excellent colour profiles of vehicles covered in the previous chapters. Note the chapters are sequential from the first two volumes, so volume 3 starts at chapter 12. Produced on high quality gloss paper and hard bound, these books are a joy to hold, and I look forward to the next in the series. Highly recommended, not just for AFV fans, but also for collectors of OOBs and TOEs, and people looking for uniform references.
