M3 Medium Tank Walk Around: Lee & Grant
Color Series
(Soft Cover)

By David Doyle.
The M3 Medium Tank was designed as an interim answer to European
battlefield conditions at the start of World War II. The tank was
required to have heavier armor and a gun twice the size of the
M2A1. Additionally, plans needed to be ready in 60 days. The
solution was the M3's unconventional design, which features a
75mm main gun mounted in a sponson on the right, front of the
hull. The British dubbed their version 'General Grant' and named
the US Army version the 'General Lee.' This book takes a detailed
look at the M3 Medium Tank with more than 200 photographs, color
profiles and detailed line drawings; 80 pages.
