The book, the Royal Armoured Corps Tank Museum: Tanks Of Other Nations represents a pictorial study of tank development in America, France, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Russia and Japan from World War I up through World War II.  The age old problem of linking firepower, protection and mobility led to the production in World War I of the first tanks.  While movable armored vehicles pulled by horses, elephants and humans had be used over the preceding centuries, it was not until the development of a practical internal combustion engine that sufficient power in a compact form was available to enable the tank idea to become a reality.  While Britain was the first to use tanks in 1916, she was closely followed by France in 1917 and Germany in 1918.  Some early American tanks arrived in France in November 1918 but were to late to go into action.  From World War I on, the tank race continued, each country trying to manufacture a more reliable and battle worthy tank.  By World War II a wide variety of light, medium and heavy tanks were fielded by both the Allied and Axis countries.  The era of modern tank began in World War II and continues to this day.  "The Royal Armoured Corps Tank Museum: Tanks Of Other Nations" includes a short historical background of tank development for each of the seven countries covered in this booklet.  In addition photographs of the more interesting tanks are provided along with a separate comparative table of the main tanks produced in each of the countries concerned.  The tanks reviewed by country are as follows: 1) America - (Holt Gas Electric, Steam Tank, Medium Tank - M2, M6 & T14) 2) France - (CA1 (M16) Schneider, Char St. Chamond, Renault FT, Char 2C, Char D1, Char D2, AMR Renault M 1935, Char Leger Renault M 1935-R (Type ZM), Hotchkiss H 35, AMC Renault M 1935 (Type ACG1), Somua S 35, Char-B1 Bis, Char FCM 36, Char FCM 36, Char FCM 36, Char H39'40, Char AMX (1938 Model), Char B1TER, AMR 50 & AMX 13); 3) Germany - (A70, "K" Panzer Kampwagen, LK II, Panzerkampwagen Commander's Model, Panzerkampf-Wagen IV Short Barrel, Panzerkampf-Wagen IV Long Barrel, Tiger, Panther, Tiger II & Maus); 4) Sweden - (STRV M'37, STRV M'38, STRV M'39, STRV M'40, STRV M'41); 5) Italy - (Carro Armatoa Fiat 2000, Carro Armato Fiat 3000 Model 21, CV3' 35, M13' 40 & P 40); 6) Russia - (T27 Carden Loyd Tankette, BT 7 Light Tank 1936, T28 Medium Tank, Heavy Tank T35-A, Medium Tank T34-B, Heavy Tank KV I Klimenti Voroshilov, T60, JS I & JS III) and 7) Japan - (Vickers Medium C, Tankette Type 94 HO-Go, Type 94 Medium, Type 95 Light, Type 97 Medium Special & Tankette Type 07 TE-KE.  In addition to an informative narrative, "The Royal Armoured Corps Tank Museum: Tanks Of Other Nations" includes approximately 63 black and white photographs.  This book is 79 pages and is in very good condition.  No author given.  Edition published in 1964.
