Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press World War II In Focus WF12 First Edition (2014) The M4 Sherman, officially the Medium Tank, M4, was the primary battle tank used by the United States and the other Western Allies in World War II, and proved to be a reliable and highly mobile workhorse, despite being outmatched by heavier German tanks late in the war. Thousands were distributed to the Allies, including the British Commonwealth and the Soviet Union, in the lend-lease program. The M4 was the second most produced tank of the World War II era, after the Soviet T-34, and its role in its parent nation's victory was comparable to that of the T-34. The tank took its name from the American Civil War General William Tecumseh Sherman. This volume in the World War II In Focus series features text covering the M4 Medium Tank's design, doctrine, production, service, armament, armor, mobility, variants, specifications, and Lend-Lease vehicles. 208 B&W photos 20 color photos 9 color illustrations 4 drawings 1 color cutaway 4 B&W cutaway drawings
