Ha, well.. I don't know, really. Tanks are "fun", but I'm not that focused. And the books I have only on tanks are either illustrated albums or focusing on Russian tanks, by Russian authors, afaik never translated to English. I can recommend a youtube series called "The Chieftain's Hatch" that you can find here:

I can recommend a great book though : The Second World War by Anthony Beevor.
The Second World War: Amazon.co.uk: Antony Beevor: 9780297844976: Books
Very readable and accessible and at the same time, it shows the whole big picture, not only the chosen few moments Hollywood made movies about
I learned a lot.
Not to be completely off topic though....
I saw "Road House" with Patick Swayze yesterday on tv and as silly as the whole thing is, it's one of those guilty pleasure movies I can watch over and over. So bad it's great is a line that sums the whole thing up.
