Nice book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Excellent coverage of an intriguing tank
  

*by K***Z on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2007*

The amphibious DD tanks was one of the more interesting weapons to be used in World War II. Tanks are interently heavy and dense objects, so making one float is clearly a major engineering project. The British response to the need for floating tanks to support amphibious invasions was an interesting if clumsy technological solution.This book is a standard Osprey New Vanguard treatment of the subject: background, technical description and operational overview, with excellent color plates. After reading the book, I had a good understanding of how the DD tanks worked, how it was used in combat, and what were its limitations.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A good book but a bit sparse in facts
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2013*

I bought for a project some of my students were doing, it was a good source for them because info on the Sherman DD is hard to come by, but it would have been even better with more facts, some primary sources (like oral interviews), etc.
