Summary of Lloyd Clark's The Battle of the Tanks

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The Battle of Prokhorovka, the largest tank battle in history, was the result of Hitler and Stalin’s tyrannical architects, Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin, who were guided by fervent ideologies and driven by unbridled ambition.

#2 The German people were upset with the Kaiser, who was a reform-shy, anti-democratic figure. They were hungry, their armed forces were broken, their economy was crushed, and politics was in crisis. The decline from a strong war-maker to a feeble peace-maker was so abrupt that it destabilized the nation and left its population reeling.

#3 The Treaty of Versailles was very unpopular in Germany, and many believed that it would lead to future conflict. The French press thought the settlement was too lenient, and British economist John Maynard Keynes thought the reparations were too great for Germany to bear.

#4 Hitler became politicized while he was serving in the German army on the Western Front. He began preaching nationalist ideals to his comrades, and his speeches became increasingly well received by audiences that grew steadily from dozens to thousands.
