Excellent coverage of basic information related to tank, armoured car, halftrack and softskin vehicle paint schemes and markings. Profusely illustrated with high quality photos and good colour plates. An older title but doesn't seem to have degraded with age. The division by division survey is especially good, and Culver found some extremely good, clear photos to illustrate each division's insignia. Still hasn't been topped by any other title in my opinion, though as always, best read in conjunction with other, newer works.
