Dust Jacket Collector Posted 14 January , 2014 Share Posted 14 January , 2014 Prompted by the acquisition of a particularly scarce volume, I've started reading some Tank Corps memoirs but can't find any kind of bibliography of what's available. I'm not looking for general histories here but more personal accounts by men who served in the Corps. I've tried looking in the Forum's dank cellars but have only emerged covered in dust so far. Looking around my shelves I can only find the following 8 books so any suggestions for further reading would be much appreciated. So far I've got :- Browne - Tanks in Action Foot - Three Lives Hickey - Rolling into Action Jenkin - A Tank Driver's Experiences Macintosh - Men & Tanks Tank Major - Tank Tales Mitchell - Tank Warfare Watson - A Company of Tanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delta Posted 14 January , 2014 Share Posted 14 January , 2014 Richard (Dick) Haigh's Life in a Tank is an early book; Dick was Willie Watson's second in command and it is interesting to compare their descriptions of common time and place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dust Jacket Collector Posted 14 January , 2014 Author Share Posted 14 January , 2014 Thanks so much Stephen. Your excellent website and the links contained therein should provide plenty of new material to keep me quite for some time. I remember the Haigh now. I saw a copy years ago but failed to buy it. Won't make that mistake again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghchurcher Posted 18 January , 2014 Share Posted 18 January , 2014 "Beyond the Green Fields" by Richard Pullen gives the personal account of 6 tankmen. There are also some great audio recordings at the IWM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
