Book Brief
Historian Zaloga returns with another handy Osprey handbook. Based on the classic Grant/Sherman tank design, M7 Priests became the main self-propelled howitzer of Allied armies during World War II – and the conflict's most widely manufactured vehicle of that type. A superb summary of an iconic vehicle and its derivatives.
Coverage includes:
- Introduction
- Development and Operation
- Combat Use
- Selected Bibliography
- Index
Highly recommended.
My sincere thanks to Osprey Publishing for this review sample!
