Supporting Material Review by Dave Smith May 2011 "This book is one of Mr Featherstone’s finest works. He served in the campaigns discussed and this really shows. The discussion of the experience of being in the tanks is first rate and the best I have seen even after many years of reading about the desert was. The book discusses communications, logistics, locating the enemy, mines, tank recovery and all those areas that most history books miss out. The rules are good, but I prefer my own. But then I am an old wargamer. Paddy Griffith’s Elite 162: World War II Desert Tactics (Osprey Publishing) is an excellent concise summary of how the battles were fought. |
