This book is a big deception to me
OK, Mr. Munch make a terrific job in gathering hundred of unpublished pictures of a small relatively unknown unit and 100 pictures of the rarely seen Jagdpanther is like fresh air, at last...
But, many pictures are of poor quality, it's the price i suppose to pay for this kind of unit history, and many are repetitive.
The combat history of s.Pz.Jag.Abt.654 is, in my opinion, not very interesting; few action in the East and minor roles in the West.
But the biggest problem is the price of this book, more than 100US$ (150 CND$!!!)At this price, I can expect more...
It's a good book for true Panzer-fans with a lot of money...
To be honest, I prefer the other Munch book on the s.Pz.Jag.Abt.653.
Ce livre fut pour moi une déception
M. Munch a fait un travail remarquable pour rassembler autant de photos inédites d'une unité militaire aussi peu connue. D'ailleurs, la centaine de photos de Jagdpanther que contient le livre a de quoi soulever la curiosité étant donné la rareté de ces dernières.
Toutefois, beaucoup de photos sont d'une qualité très moyenne et surtout répétitives et finissent par perdre de l'intérêt.
En plus, a part une brève apparition à Koursk et Orel, quelques rôles mineurs en Normandie et en Alsace, la feuille de route de cette unité est plutôt mince.
Mais le vrai problème réside peut-être dans le prix très élevé de 100US$ de ce livre, ce qui me permet d'être aussi critique à son égard
En ce qui me concerne, j'ai préféré l'autre ouvrage de M. Munch sur la s.Pz.Jag.Abt.653
Ce livre s'adresse donc avant tout aux fans fortunés....
