Hi, haven’t posted here in quite a while (forum is now blocked by Websense), but I thought you guys would like to know that the long-unavailable Hunnicutt book on the Pershing is being carried by a book seller called On Military Matters. Website:

They got a box of them that have been sitting in a warehouse. What a find. Get them now before they are GONE forever.
Just in time for the 1/48th scale Tamiya kit …
Reprinted. Available thru other sources too

Thnx for the update regardless. It’s a nice volume. Essential if you want to do the Super Pershing or other variants, IMHO
Hello Gents ,
I have this book by R.P. Hunnicutt . It is an excellent source of research material for the Pershing . One could not ask for more . I also have 2 other books by this author , Firepower ( about American Heavy Tanks ), featuring the T28 , M103 , and everything before , in between , and after ( even tanks that didn’t leave the drawing board ). And lastly his book on the M1 Abrams . Which covers the developement of the M1 up to the M1A1. These books are well worth having if you are an enthusiast of American Armor , or for anyone interested in Armor for that matter. I am still searching for his book on the Sherman . I have searched high and low for this book and it still remains somewhat of a " Holy Grail " , LOL. Happy Modelling !

Frank: Both “Sherman” and “Pershing” have just been reissued. RZM.com is carrying them at $130 and $80 respectively. From what i’ve read, from the 1000 reprints of “Sherman”, seven hundred have already been sold.
Thankyou T26E4 for the info ! Greatly appreciated !

Larry,
Where did you find the Ogre image in your icon. I haven’t seen that in years. I used to play that and GEV during the 70’s and 80’s.
