Very detailed...

The first few chapters deal with rearmament, the early Panzer divisions and training. The rest of the book deals with the Panzers themselves, a chapter for each Panzer, giving the details of how and why each type was made, the weapons, powerplants, the different varients and first hand accounts from German tankers. Lots of photos of tanks in action and on the job.
