"bigger, better" tank game played out on the Eastern Front. Best bet is
to go down to a good book shop and look for a tank book which looks to be
general in nature. There are plenty of them out there, often times in
the discount bin :-) Otherwise, Amazon or the likes has hundreds of
books on the subject. >>
If you want detailed information, Schiffer Publishing has some hardbound
books on most of the above mentioned books....very detailed. Unfortunately I
don't quite remember the name of the German ex-tanker who wrote most of them
(Walter Speilberger I think).
Also, Ryton publications has produced some very good books on the various
German armored vehicles...similar to the works R.P. Hunnicutt has done on US
armored vehicles. Unfortunately, also like Hunnicutt's works these tend to
be short runs and expensive.
Hope this helps,
