About this book
The Panzer III was the instrument of Blitzkrieg on land, the major component of the Panzerwaffe in the early war years, and an important stepping stone between the earliest Panzers and the heavier vehicles of the later war years. Over 15,000 were built and the Panzerkampfwagen III saw service in all theatres, serving with distinction in Africa and Russia. With detailed step-by-step model photography, specially commissioned walkround photography, scale drawings and wartime shots, this book will provide all the details needed to model the main Panzer III version – the Ausf J – and its variants.
