As the Second World War dragged on, heavy German losses in armoured vehicles and tanks ensured that assault gun units had to play an increasingly vital role in supporting the beleaguered infantry and countering Allied armour, particularly on the Eastern Front. The Sturmgeschutz was one of the most numerously produced and effectively deployed of the German armoured vehicles. This book reveals how the Sturmgeschutz provided the backbone of Germany's armoured forces in every theatre and on every front during the long fighting-retreat of the final years of the war.Doyle, Hilary L. is the author of 'Sturmegeschutz III and IV 1942-45', published 2001 under ISBN 9781841761824 and ISBN 1841761826.
