From: sdeering@ATHENA.MIT.EDU Does anyone know of any books dealing with the M1 tank, the M-1A1, or modern tank warfare in general? Also, if anyone has the addresses of stores that would carry books like this, please write me or post. Thanks. -scott deering sdeering@athena.mit.edu

Miller and C.F. Foss Portland House, NY 1987 There are four companion volumes on air, sea and undersea combat. I do not have THE reference on the M1 and variants but there is a book that is THE book to get; it cost about $70 and is slightly larger than 8.5x11 and contains about 400 pages. I saw a copy at the Dayton AF museum or was it at a gun collector show; it has a simple title like the 'M1 Abrams'. It has companion volumes on the Sherman and Patton tanks.
