The aim of this book is to provide a photographic account of the final year of tank fighting on the Eastern Front, from the cataclysmic destruction of German Army Group Centre in Byelorussia in the summer of 1944 through to the final fighting around Berlin and Prague in May 1945. In preparing this book, the authors encountered the opposite problem faced in the earlier book Operation 'Barbarossa' (Tanks Illustrated No. 16) Photographic coverage of the 1944-5 fighting from the German perspective is quite limited, while Soviet coverage is much more extensive and available. Many of the German photos included here are from collections from friends in Eastern Europe who were able to locate German files left behind during the retreat of 1944-5, and they are seen here in print for the first time.
