For whatever reasons, for me, David Higgins seems to transcend the limitations of this particular Osprey series; maybe because his subject choices are a little bit different. So, besides the context and development of the Cromwell and Jagdpanzer IV, one gets a fair amount of background on the relevant elements of the British 7th Armoured Division, the Polish 10th Cavalry (still commemorated in the contemporary Polish army), the German Panzer-Lehr Division and the Waffen-SS 12th Panzer Division. Finally, one winds up with an overview of these units in the "bocage" fighting in Normandy. Higgins also thoughtfully provides his bibliography. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

By 1944, the evolution of armored doctrine had produced very different outcomes in Britain and Germany. Offering a good balance of speed, protection, and firepower, the British Cromwell tank was much faster than its German opponent. However, the Jagdpanzer IV tank destroyer had a high-velocity main gun and a lower profile that made it formidable on the defensive, especially in ambush situations. The two types would fight in a series of bloody encounters, from the initial days of the strugglefor Normandy through its climax as the Allies sought to trap their opponents in the Falaise Pocket. Using archive photographs, specially commissioned artwork, and battle reports, this fascinating study expertly assesses the realities of tactical armored combat during the desperate battles after D-Day.
