i have been sent a leaflet from Ian Allen
and note that they have for sale
The Tiget Tank story by Mark Henly @£8.99
i am personally a little dissapointed by this book

The other which is mentioned is Tiger `1942-1943 vol1(july 2010)
it has what i assume is a Polish imprint . Its the price that rather puts me off rushing to purchase £79.99.
So basically is it worth all that dosh for 448 pages which includes 88 pages of 2 and 3d colour artwork.
Does one feel as though one has spent money for worthwhile information.
Even Amazon UK prices are more than above

well to answer my own post.
i have looked at a copy in The Manchester shop of Ian Allan.
As to the book ;nice book,good quality paper used.
Pictures are clear etc. BUT basically some of the pictures are
in other books AND NO i didnt look at the associated maps etc
ITS over priced

Hi David,

I purchaced this book a while ago, thinking it would be on the same lines as a sister book by the same author on the King Tiger. I found that it was alot of money for just photo's with the odd line drawing. I certainly would not buy part 2.

Best Wishes

Rob
