Chariots of Fire by Philip Kaplan
In this illustrated book Philip Kaplan tells the story of the tank's development and of the men who rode into battle in tanks, from the Somme in 1916 to the Gulf War of 1991. In doing so he draws upon the accounts - many previously unpublished - of veterans which vividly convey what it was like.
Philip Kaplan is a publications art director whose first book, One Last Look, recorded the remains of wartime American airbases in Britain. He has subsequently produced a whole series of books that recreate the lives of fighting men in words and pictures. These include Wolfpack, Convoy (both with the late Jack Currie), Fighter Pilot, Bombers and, most recently, Fly Navy.
