The author actually served with the 51st Royal Tank Regiment in Italy and so draws heavily on his own experience of what armoured warfare was like. He includes detailed accounts of individual engagements which are ideal scenarios for wargamers. These really give the feel for what it was like to be the commander, driver or gunner of a tank in action. For any wargamer who wishes to pursue an interest in the Western Desert Theatre and continue his campaign into Tunisia and Italy, this book is ideal.
