First used in combat during the Punitive Expedition into Mexico and then extensively during both World War I (1914-1918) and World War II (1939-1945), the Colt Government Model (1911) pistol remained the standard issue handgun in the US armed forces for nearly 80 years and has continued in service with some units to this day. In fact, the M1911 has seen a resurgence among US Special Operations units, as US Marine MARSOC and MEUSOC personnel are issued current generation 1911-type pistols.

There are few more famous WWII tanks than the M4 Sherman. It was arguably the most important tank of the war - if only in terms of numbers built. Over 40,000 were produced by eleven US manufacturers. The Sherman was also to become the mainstay of the British Army's armored force, with the first 252 vehicles arriving in North Africa in time for the Second Battle of El Alamein. These tanks had been stripped from a U.S. division and shipped across the dangerous waters of the Atlantic. This book traces the Sherman in British Army use from those early days in North Africa, through to the final days of WWII in Germany itself. In between are the campaigns waged in Italy, France and Northwest Europe, and even a small section on Burma. Interestingly, with their penchant for naming tanks, it was the British that christened the M4 as the Sherman , and the moniker has famously stuck. In the introduction the author gives a brief description of all the types used by the UK, including the modified Firefly with its 17pdr gun, a variant that was unique to the British. | |

Panzers in Italy 1943-45 As soon as the Axis Forces in North Africa were defeated, the Allies launched 'Operation Husky', the invasion of Sicily. The landings took place on 10 July 1943 and by 17 August, the Sicilian campaign was finished. On 9 September, the US landed at Salerno on the Italian mainland and faced German stiff resistance. Eventually the beachhead at Salerno was secured and the Allies pushed north towards Naples. Kesselring set up a defensive line between Naples and Rome called the Gustav Line and the Germans were determined to stop the Allies. On 22 January 1944 the Allies landed at Anzio, behind the German defenses. While the Germans were launching counter-attacks, the US tried to breach the Gustav Line. Monte Cassino was the scene of some of the heaviest fighting in the Italian campaign. With the capture of the monastery at Cassino in May, the Allies breakout from the Anzio beachhead and drove towards Rome, liberated it on 4 June 1944. Then came the Gothic Line which was eventually broken in September. | |

Without the Red (or Soviet) Army, it is likely that the Western Allies would have taken much longer to defeat the Third Reich - they may even have lost altogether. However even decades after the war's end, little is widely known about this giant organization that numbered millions of soldiers. Broken down by key battles or campaigns within each theater of war, Order of Battle: The Red Army in World War II shows the strengths and organizational structures of the Red Army's ground forces campaign by campaign, building into a detailed compendium of information.
