World War I's fierce battles saw the need to develop military technology beyond anything previously imagined: as exposed infantry and cavalry were mowed down by relentless machine-gun attacks, tanks were developed. Here Tank Hunter Craig Moore presents every World War I tank, from the prototype "Little Willie," through the French heavy tanks to the German light tank. He gives a focused history of the development of this game-changing vehicle and the engagements they were used in, such as the Somme and Cambrai. Stunningly illustrated in full color throughout, Tank Hunter provides historical background, facts, and figures for each surviving World War I tank, giving you the opportunity to become a Tank Hunter yourself.
