M19-M20 TANK TRANSPORTER DETAIL IN ACTION
Paperback

By David Doyle.
Collectively known as the M19 Heavy Tank Transporter, this truck
and trailer combination was conceived at the behest of British in
1941, and was later used by the United States Army as well. The
prime mover for the combination was the Diamond T model 980 or
981 12-ton truck, known as the M20, while the 45-ton capacity
full trailer it towed was designated the M9. The combination saw
widespread use during World War II, and well into the postwar
years. This 80-page book explores the development, use, and
details of these wartime workhorses through 64 black-and-white
vintage photographs in conjunction with 158 detailed full-color
photos of immaculately preserved examples.
