Reference : C1914-03TL
Full title : The Encyclopedia of French Tanks and Armoured Vehicles 1914-1940
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tank, a weapon which would revolutionize warfare, was created in France almost exactly at the same time as in Britain, to meet the same tactical need. And even before the fi rst tanks were built, it was in France, at the turn of the 20th Century, that the very first proper machinegun car with partial armour appeared.

This complete illustrated directory details 100 main French armoured fighting vehicles (tanks and armoured cars) plus 285 variants (personnel carriers, bridgelayers, mine-clearing tanks etc) as well as prototypes and projects, offering a comprehensive coverage of all French armoured vehicles from before the Great War to the Blitzkrieg period.

The text accompanying the illustrations is concise and informative, the various lines of AFV development are laid out as Genealogic Tables, data fi les describe in detail each main type, and this directory is richly illustrated with rare contemporary photos, plus a wealth of colour profi les published to a constant scale, together forming the ultimate reference work on the subject.
