| Description: |
The world's first ever battle tank entered service on the Western Front in August 1916 and had its baptism of fire on the morning of 15 September on the Somme battlefield. British designers had created their tracked armored vehicle for the Army to break the domination of the trench and the machine gun over the battlefields of the Western Front. Features the Great War Tank held at the Tank Museum, Bovington. |
| Synopsis: |
The world's first ever battle tank receives the Haynes Manual treatment and its centrepiece is the most prolific British tank of the Great War - the Tank Mk IV. World authority David Fletcher looks at the anatomy, construction and operation of the Mk IV (including rare contemporary eyewitness descriptions), as well as giving fascinating insights into the maintenance and restoration of these historic armoured fighting vehicles. Individual preserved Great War tanks that feature in the manual include Flirt II, the Ashford Tank, Lodestar III, Excellent and Deborah. |
