As with all the Images of War series, this one is well written, beautifully presented and there are lots of great images which makes it a must have reference book for scale modellers of Cold War machinery.

The information that Michael Green gives us is short and sweet on each Tank and AFV but it’s enough, I thought. If I was concentrating on a specific model, I would definitely use this book along with other, more detailed, reference books.

Vintage Airfix

The 220-page book is a joy for the eyes because it examines, in an almost exhaustive way, every vehicle used by the USA for a period of about 50 years. There are not only exterior photographs but also diagrams of the internal arrangement of the vehicles and photographs of the passenger and crew compartments. To contextualise the laborious evolution of vehicles, there is no shortage of photos of what was produced in the USSR at the time. All this makes this book a must for any military vehicle enthusiast and for any historian.

On The Old Barbed Wire

The Images of War series has proved very popular, setting the high standard maintained by this new addition to the series. The Cold War set the US Army a number of challenges, one of which was a virtually continuous high level of alert with a series of conventional conflicts and surrogate wars, but always under the shadow of the prospect of a nuclear battlefield. – Very Highly Recommended.

Scale Modelling Now

This is a great volume looking at US armour during the Cold War. The author does a great job of including both the pro’s and con’s of the vehicles he’s discussing, which make for interesting reading.

Irregular magazine, Spring 2020

Obviously, the photographs are the main attraction with these books, but Green’s commentary certainly enhances the reading experience.
