Gotta love these Osprey books

Another hit. Packed full of detail with unique photos and beautiful illustrations. I love these books.

The complete Leopard 1 reference

This book is the main Leopard book you need. It covers the development of the first Lepard 1 in 1965, and gives you all the details of the version up to the Leopard 1A5. I also covers foreign versions and other versions made with the Leopard chassis. It includes colorful illustrations from Michael Badrocke, on of Britain's leading illustrators of military and other high-tec equipment.The only reason why this book only got 4 starts, was because the rest of the book is only in black-and-white.But the information is worth it for a Leopard 1 enthusiast!
