Bren Gun Carrier
Condition: BRAND NEW ISBN: 9781526746436 Author(s): Robert Jackson Format: Paperback Language: English Year: 2019 Publisher: Pen & Sword Books Ltd Pages: 64 Series: Land Craft
Description: One of the most versatile fighting vehicles in the British army and many other forces for a quarter of a century, the Universal Carrier - more popularly known by its original title of Bren Gun Carrier - was developed as a fast and agile infantry-support vehicle. In this volume in Pen & Sword's LandCraft series, Robert Jackson traces its design and manufacturing history and describes its operational role throughout its long career. The Bren Carrier served in every theatre of the Second World War, from northwest Europe, North Africa and the Soviet Union to the Far East. Then, with the war over, it was operated by many belligerents in a string of other conflicts around the world, including Israel's struggle for independence and the war in Korea. A selection of archive photographs showing the Bren Carrier in action gives a graphic impression of how adaptable it was and records the variety of equipment it could carry. The book is an excellent source for the modeller, providing details of available kits together with specially commissioned colour profiles which illustrate how the Bren Carriers used by different units and armies appeared. AUTHOR: Robert Jackson is the author of over eighty books on military, aviation, naval and scientific subjects. He was defence and science correspondent for a major British newspaper publishing group. Among the other books he has compiled for Pen & Sword are T-34: Russia's Armoured Spearhead, Panzer I and II: Blueprint for Blitzkrieg 1933-1941 and Centurion: Amoured Hero of Post-war Tank Battles. 200 colour and b/w illustrations
