Warriors for the Working Day

“The soldier in World War II is the subject of this authentically realized portrait of a battalion in the Royal Tank Corps—and specifically of one group that made up a closely integrated team. . . . Death takes heavy toll—and at times the reader feels the futility of it almost too intensely. Little has been written about Tank Corps operation, and the part they played in the invasion, in France, Belgium, Holland and Germany—as the end seemed within reach—and one setback after another cost a terrible price. The author has tapped his own personal experience for many of the incidents—but has drawn his characters from imagination and knowledge of the caliber of the men he knew.”
