Dealer Notes
A short history of the tank from the time of its conception in the minds of its numerous inventors to the end of the War. Major Williams-Ellis reaches the conclusion that, every factor being cancelled out, the fact that the French and English possessed tanks and the Germans did not was just enough to win the last war for the Allies.
