The Second World War was the beginning of a revolution in war and combat. Prior to WWII, the use of armoured vehicles for warfare was completely unheard of. WWII ushered in a new era with the invention and evolution of tanks. This audiobook covers the journey of how these incredible machines became a norm for combat by the time 1945, and then end of the World War came around. Follow the journey of these muscled armoured monsters from their unusual beginnings when devised in the 15th/16th century by the ever-famous Leonardo Da Vinci, through to their use during some legendary battles during World War II.

Prepare to marvel at the revolutionary innovative nature of these killing machines during World War II. Uncover the role that Charles DeGaulle and other famous figureheads held in the inception and evolution. Find yourself gripped as you discover the stories of some of the most well-known and decisive tank battles during the war.

The enthralling stories include the very famous and fear-inducing blitzkrieg story of the invasion of Poland that completely revolutionized armored combat, the battle of El Alamein led by British Commander Montgomery, and the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union stronghold Kursk.

Your journey will conclude with the ultimate discovery of how tanks literally changed the game when it comes to war and combat. This is something still seen in modern-day warfare.

Good book,but....

Derek Dysart's narration,while being ok in the main,leaves much to be desired in his pronunciation of many of the main place names and character names...he obviously has not read this book before the recording and has little actual knowledge of WWII in either Europe or Africa..."El Mein"????...."Heinz Gudieran"????...ruined the book for me.
