Being volume 26 in a photobook series, there is little by way of text / narrative to read, rather the book is comprised of more than one hundred large, clear images depicting the title unit in action and during everyday life in a warzone. These images are accompanied by a couple of sentences to explain, point out a feature, or otherwise give the image context and how the scene depicted fits into the narrative.
The introduction to the book literally just introduces Panzer-Regiment 18, Panzer-Abteilung (F) 100, and combat experience in Op. Barbarossa, with several paragraphs, which give a very overarching explanation, not an in-depth analysis or examination.
A particular feature of this title that I appreciated is there are a couple of scenes represented by several images, or there are multiple images of the same vehicle; a real advantage when it comes to modelling.
The vehicles are the star of the book, with images of the men and their charges, including a range of tanks, both Allied and Axis, including, among others, the Pz.A13(e) or MK IV 744(e), a.k.a. the British Cruiser Mk.IV (A 13 Mk.II).
Easily recommended as a good read and great reference book.
