The highly successful 'stop-gap' M3 medium tank was designed in 1941, and as adequate turret casting facilities were not yet ready, the M3 used an unusual armament configuration patterned after a French tank.

This book covers the design, development, service and variants of a vehicle that was the backbone of many World War II forces.
