 The book, Order Of Battle: German Panzers In WW II is a detailed, authoritative guide to the organization of Germany's armored divisions in World War II.  When World War II began in Europe in September 1939, Germany's Panzerwaffe stunned the world with lightning quick tank attacks that seized Poland by storm and later overwhelmed what was then considered a world class French Army.  Later, Hitler's Panzers drove Russian forces back to the gates of Moscow before they were ultimately stopped.  The famed Africa Corps under the brilliant leadership of German Field Marshall Erwin Rommel was able to stave off defeat in North Africa for two years despite having far fewer forces and tanks available for battle than the Allied forces.  This book examines the organization and strength of the German tank forces that took part in every major German campaign launched during World War II from the initial attacks on Poland to their final major offensive known as the Battle of the Bulge.  Every campaign reviewed includes: 1) Description of the panzer forces used; 2) Troop strengths; 3) Orders of battle for the formations and 4) An examination of the panzer forces utilized.  The major sections of "Order Of Battle: German Panzers In WW II" are as follows: 1) The Panzerwaffe of the German Army; 2) Polish Campaign (1939); 3) France and the Low Countries (1940); 4) The Balkans and Crete (1941-45); 5) Panzers in North Africa (1941-43); 6) The Eastern Front (1941-45); 7) Sicily and Italy (1943-45); 8) Normandy, France and the Low Countries (1944); 9) Defence of the Reich (1945); 10) Appendices including a comprehensive list and illustration of German Panzer divisional tactical insignias and 11) Index.  In addition to an informative narrative, "Order Of Battle: German Panzers In WW II" includes the following features: 1) Approximately 15 black and white wartime photographs; 2) 1 color wartime photograph; 3) 3 black and white illustrations; 4) Colorful tree diagrams of every panzer formation from the invasion of Poland to the collapse of the Third Reich in 1945 and 5) 40 full-color detailed maps for the main armored campaigns of the war.  "Order Of Battle: German Panzers In WW II is certain to appeal to both the German World War II enthusiast and modeler alike.  This book is 192 pages and is in very goof condition.  The author is Chris Bishop.  Edition published in 2008.
