Designed as a heavily armoured tank which could accompany infantry
formations, the Churchill's ability to cross rough ground and climb
seemingly unassailable hills became legendary. The tank first saw
action in 1942 and the basic design was constantly re-worked and
upgunned, culminating in the Mark VII version which was capable of
taking on the heaviest German tanks.
In his fourth book in the TankCraft series, Dennis Oliver uses
archive photographs and thoroughly researched, vividly presented
colour profiles to tell the story of these iconic British tanks. As
readers have come to expect from the TankCraft series, the large
full colour section of this book features available model kits and
accessories as well as aftermarket products. In addition to the
colour profiles there is a gallery of expertly constructed and
painted models. A separate section explains technical details and
production modifications giving the modeller all the information
and knowledge required to recreate an authentic reproduction of one
of the tanks that contributed so much to the British effort in the
battles for Normandy.
