From the evacuation of France in 1940 to the final dash to Hamburg in 1945 the 5th Royal Tank Regiment were on the front line throughout the Second World War. Theirs was a war that saw them serve in Africa as part of the Desert Rats before returning to Europe for the Normandy landings. Wherever they went the notoriety of the ' Filthy Fifth' grew
- they revelled in their reputation for fighting by their own rules. The Tank War explains how Britain having lost its advantage in tank warfare by 1939 regained ground through shifts in tactics & leadership methods as well as the daring & bravery of the crews themselves. Overturning the received wisdom of much Second World War history Mark Urban shows how the tank regiments' advances were the equal of the feats of the German Panzer divisions.
