    Panzer reference info wanted...

    Hi guys
    I hope one or some of you can help
    I have quite a good selection of panzer reference books, but can anyone recommend a good reference book focusing on the actual workings +mechanics of the tanks? In my dreams there's a great book full of engine diagrams, glossy color pics, cross-sections, and all understandable to a lay-man (=idiot) like me...
    is there the 'king' of panzer books out there?
    regards

      Spielberger series

      Panzermeyer is refering to the Spielberger series on German vehicles. This is a wonderful series that covers all major armored and soft skinned vehicles of both German and foreign manufacture used by the Wehrmacht. The volumes hqave a lot of mechanical drawings of various components and is probably the best source. The original series is in German but over time the volumes are being translatted into English. Check out www.schifferbooks.com as I believe they distribute the English versions. Thomas Jentz and Hillary Doyle also do some nice books on Panthers and Tigers with a lot of this sort of information.
      Hope that helps.
