A comprehensive and up-to-date study of the combat and logistics vehicles which formed part of the German contingent that fought in the Spanish Civil War alongside the rebels.

The Panzer I, which so surprised the world in the Polish campaign and initially equipped the German Panzerdivisionen, was first seen in the Spanish Civil War, together with a wide range of war materiel such as anti-tank guns, flamethrowers, and so on.This book looks at a wide range of vehicles: from the humblest motorcycle to the Horch staff car; from Opel 'Blitz', MAN Diesel, Mercedes, and Krupp trucks to the enormous Vomag 3LR 443 truck; not forgetting all the different types of military ambulances seen in Spain during the war years.Never has such a comprehensive, painstaking and graphical study been made of vehicles used by the German contingent in the Spanish Civil War.

The book contains over 500 top quality images, most of them previously unpublished, with each model that served in Spain perfectly identified.

Industry Reviews

"It is a great reference for the enthusiast and an equally useful book for those who are interested in the Spanish Civil War. To my knowledge there has been no other book like this one before..."-- "ModelingMadness.Com"
"This book is a treasure throve of pictures of the vehicles Germany fielded in the Spanish Civil War. The 500+ photographs come from a private collection, so these are not recycled photographs you will see in a Google search or time after time on video documentaries."-- "IPMS/USA"
"This is a great book both for historical information and reference photos."-- "AMPS"
"This is a great SCW modeler's reference -- at least from the German equipment perspective. Enjoyed it."-- "Historical Miniatures Gaming Society"
"Worth getting if you're interested in German machinery, or even machinery of the War/period. Well-written, well-illustrated, well-edited."-- "WW2 Talk"
This is a book that's really covering ground that hasn't been covered elsewhere.-- "Tank and AFV News.com"
