The 2nd SS Panzer Division Das Reich by Yves Buffetaut
A fully illustrated history of the 2nd SS-Panzer 'Das Reich' Division, from their pre-war formation, through the Blitzkrieg campaigns and Barbarossa to Normandy and their final surrender in May 1945.
This series does exactly what it says on the cover - lavishly illustrated, stuffed with photos and biographies what else could you ask for? Certainly my first recourse from now on when looking at the SS panzer divisionsgive yourself a treat and buy a copy asap if tanks are your thing. * Army Rumour Service *
I happen to really like what Histoire & Collections and other publishers across the Channel have been doing and welcome the opportunity to see their books in English, especially when they cover French subjects. * War History Online *
... a first-rate book, which readers will return to many times over and always find something new. * Gun Mart *
In one book the reader will get the full history of this famous German division. Moreover, those photos contain rare material and might come handy for a modeling hobby as well. * DetailScaleView *
These twin books by the same author are high-quality…with excellent photographs and an endowment of full-colour pictures of typical equipment. * Miniature Wargames - Chris Jarvis *
The text of each chapter tells the historical story of sequential events while the heart of the book is held by the large number of archive photos which do indeed illustrate the story. Interspersed with all this are separate factual notes giving profiles of various commanders, maps and some fine colour profiles of various tanks and trucks which modellers in particular will enjoy. * Military Model Scene *
Quite an excellent publication squeezing a lot into its 128 pages. Recommended. * Scale Military Modelling International Magazine *
And here is another fascinating piece of military history from the opposite point of view...this doesn't purport to be an illustrated history of the Reich, but it damn well is! * Books Monthly *
If you're interested in German Armoured Operations, and in particular the 2nd SS Panzer Regiment then this will be a good read. * Britmodeller.com *
