About the book: 2016 / Illustrated chronicle of the "Tigers" on the Eastern Front. Over 350 exclusive frontline photos. A new, expanded and corrected edition of the best-selling book of the German Panzer ace, who had 57 destroyed tanks in combat. Alfred Rubbel went through the war “from bell to bell” - from June 22, 1941 to the spring of 1945 - a total of 41 months on the front line . He had the opportunity to fight in the early series Pz.IV with a short “cigarette butt” cannon, and in the long-barreled Pz.IVF2, and in the “Tiger I”, and in the “Royal Tiger”. He was wounded near Leningrad, fought near Volkhov and in the Caucasus, participated in the battle for Kharkov and Operation Citadel, retreated to the Dnieper, broke out of the Cherkassy “cauldron”, but realized the hopelessness of the war only in Hungary, when the last attempts of the Wehrmacht’s counter-offensives failed, and the German defense finally collapsed under the crushing blows of the Red Army... This book is a unique opportunity to see the carnage of the Eastern Front through the sight of a Pz.IV and from the commander’s turret of the formidable Tiger».
