Overview

The Sherman was the most widely used Allied tank of World War II and was built in larger numbers than all German tanks combined. There was also a huge number of variants, powered by different engines, and manufactured with different types of hulls and turrets. This book presents an expert guide to modelling the 75mm gun versions used by the US Army in the ETO, in 1/35 and 1/48 scale. The projects featured include an early M4A1 from Operation Husky (July 1943), an intermediate M4 during Operation Cobra (August 1944), an M4 mine-roller in the Ardennes (January 1945), and a M4A3 during Operation Grenade (February 1945).

In my opinion, having reviewed a good number of Osprey's Modelling series, in the 'bang for the buck' category, it definitely comes top of any list. This new book by Steven Zaloga, gets even more mileage out of an already popular modelling subject by writing a book which will have valuable applications no matter where your subject interest lies. --Jim Rae, Armorama (October 2006) All of the articles are superbly written and include not only a goodly number of in-work images, but many pages of the completed model. I'm sure that if one was so inclined any of these could be duplicated with just care in construction. Another fine addition to the Osprey Modelling series and one you [can] be sure will offer good value. --Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com In my opinion, having reviewed a good number of Osprey's Modelling series, in the 'bang for the buck' category, it definitely comes top of any list.
