Just finished this book by James Holland, what a fantastic read, really takes you on the perilous journey of this battle honoured British tank unit of WW2 from D-Day to Bremen. You get to know the various main characters of the regiment, some survive, some do not. Even the final chapter is a fitting and moving tribute to these brave men. Thoroughly recommend if you have an intererest in tank warfare and Normandy. Their battles in Northern Holland and Germany are equally as brutal.
I found myself searching more info on a couple of the main characters and they also brought out their own books on their service in the war. There is also a fascinating podcast on WW2 nation by David Render (Sherman troop commander - SRY) Where he vividly describes how they took on and knocked out Tiger tanks.
