More info

He was called "the fearless knight of the Reich" and glorified as "the best tank ace of World War II". He was extolled by Goebbels propaganda. His exploits were legendary. Until now, Hauptsturmführer Michael Wittmann is considered the most productive tanker in history - according to official figures, in three years he destroyed 138 enemy tanks and 132 artillery pieces.
However, many details of his real biography are still unknown. Only one successful battle of Wittmann is accurately documented, near Villiers-Bocage on June 13, 1944, when his "Tiger" defeated a British column, knocking out about 20 enemy tanks and armored vehicles in a matter of minutes. The circumstances of Wittmann's death are not fully clarified either - there are several mutually exclusive versions of his death. For almost 40 years, his crew was considered missing - the remains were discovered and identified only in 1983...
This book is the first Russian biography of the famous tank ace, a detailed account of his battle path from a simple artilleryman to the commander of a heavy tank company . Having studied all the available literature, analyzing conflicting information and eyewitness accounts, reviewing the list of battles and victories, the author exposes numerous myths about "the best tanker of all times and peoples", formed during Wittmann's lifetime and surrounding his name after his death, up to the present day.< /p>
