Summary: The M3&M5 Stuarts for the model maker and general historian
Review: I found this book excellant for the model maker,as I usually shy away from the vanguard series. With Jim Laurier and Steve J.Zagola (or anything with Steve Zagola" J" or not)Great referance material. I was doing a M3 Stuart and did not relize the varations of the M3 chassies. As I am a wood ship builder,I thought armor would be a nice change. Ha! now I have at least 6 verions to make. I have bought 5 more in this series,happily. Now for a quick review: The book shows a different paint pattern than the Mini-craft model for the Honey version "Bellman ". Which I believe is correct as another tank from the same division is painted in the same sceme. As a modeler all I can say, is with this kind of material,It will be awhile before I build a wood ship.
