Despite its individual potency, it was almost always utilized as part of a comprehensive system of defences that relied on a mix of weapons carefully deployed in anticipation of the enemy's likely avenue and method of attack. Used in this way, the 88 became a particularly deadly part of the Afrika Korps' attempts to shatter British armoured power in the Western Desert. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInitially extremely successful over the course of 1941 and 1942 in Operations Battleaxe and Crusader, the Allies' tactics and vehicles (such as the American-made M3 and the Crusader III) eventually evolved to deal with the 88's awesome power. This detailed new book tells the story of that evolution and provides an in-depth treatment of this key weapon of World War II.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Campbell, David Greentree\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472841158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472841155\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/23\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 7.20w x 0.30d","brand":"David Campbell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46545782145279,"sku":"9781472841155","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d9d935fe-6b40-455c-b872-7b24a809af77.jpg?v=1738183308","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/german-88mm-gun-vs-allied-david-campbell-9781472841155","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
