FirstRead

As I have mentioned in previous reviews, Ammo By Mig has really hit the market hard, with many products, from paints, pigments, brushes and books.

Here is the latest in the Steel Series on the T-54/Type 59.

It is written by Peter Robinson, a former tank Commander with the Kings Royal Hussars for 28 years, including service up against the T-54 in Bosnia and the Gulf War. He is very passionate in the subject of armour.

This title comes in the form of a soft cover, A4 landscape format, printed on high quality glossy paper. There are 70 pages in total.

The first nine pages cover the history of the tank, and its different variants and combat history.

Next is a series of excellent close up reference photos, all colour, of both the Type A and B variants. The book then proceeds to show some nice interior shots and lastly five pages of colour profile drawings of different vehicles used by different countries, an excellent finish.

I think this is a very nice book, with a lots of info to help one build a very accurate kit of this tank.

Whether an armour enthusiast, a modeller or a collector, this is one I’d say to go and grab. A nice book indeed.
