{"product_id":"provisional-handbook-of-the-chaser-andrew-hills-9781791962425","title":"Provisional Handbook of the Chaser Mark I: Whippet Tank Service Manual","description":"In 1916 the British Army had started using tanks in battle in an attempt to break the deadlock of trench warfare. These large lumbering Heavy Tanks were slow and unable to exploit weaknesses in enemy lines or a breakthrough. What was needed was a new 'Medium' Tank, and the Lincolnshire firm of William Foster and Co., the brains behind the Heavy Tanks set to work on a new Medium vehicle. By February 1917, this new vehicle, known as the Tritton Chaser or 'Whippet' was ready in prototype form. Two hundred of these Whippet tanks, officially known as the Medium Mark A were produced. This manual dates to the early days of the Whippet as it was being produced for the Tank Corps. A guide to the operation and maintenance of this new, smaller, and faster tank.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Hills\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1791962424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781791962425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.12d","brand":"Andrew Hills","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44052949860607,"sku":"9781791962425","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2b5583f1-7848-4ed9-9077-f55afaad6d05.jpg?v=1685021541","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/provisional-handbook-of-the-chaser-andrew-hills-9781791962425","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
