Books on AT Weapons ? (Other than the 2 Osprey NV books)
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Post subject: Books on AT Weapons ? (Other than the 2 Osprey NV books)

On the lookout for detailed reference sources on AT weapons of WWII.

I know that Osprey has two New Vangaurd books on this subject.

Apart from books on Allied WWII Artillery (IIRC Terry Gander or Ian Hogg wrote such a book) , is there other dedicated books / ref sources on WWII AT Artillery / Weapons alone ?

Ref sources should , if possible , contain info on AT Artillery as well as infantry portable AT weapons.

Thanks in advance

Dirk

Try Service Publications: www.Servicepub.com
'The 6-Pounder in Canadian Service' by Doug Knight CDN$9.95. His monographs on the 2-pdr and 17-pdr should also be coming out-shortly. They cover the guns' development, variants, production, employment, with a good selection of photos.

If you can find it John Weeks Men Against Tanks David and Charles 1975 gives a well written overview of the development of A/Tk weapons.

That's one of the problems with being an aging hobbyist. All of my encyclopedic references along those lines date from well before 1985 out of publishers that don't seems to exist anymore!
