This immense book (over 500 pages, weighing in excess of 2kg!) is a complete and detailed history of the 23rd Panzer Division during the Second World War, and is illustrated throughout with photographs and maps.
The 23rd Panzer Division gained a reputation as a reliable unit in some of the toughest battles of the war, including Kharkov, Rostov, Dnepropetrovsk, the Dnepr Bend, Romania, Poland, Hungary, and Lake Balaton. The day-by-day coverage of the division’s combat actions and the hundreds of photos and maps make this an essential resource for anyone interested in the military history of World War II. It is a fascinating book that covers not only the fearsome tanks used by the division, but also the men who fought in the battles.
The book is thus a complete history of a German tank division that fought exclusively on the Eastern Front, and which operated near Stalingrad and in Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, and Austria. The unit relied heavily on captured enemy tanks, such as Soviet T-34s, and illustrations in the book include eight pages of color vehicle profiles.
