Tip of the Spear: German Armored Reconnaissance in Action in World War II

During World War II, German armored reconnaissance laid the groundwork--often through small-unit actions--for the stunning tank and infantry operations that made the German military famous. Robert Edwards's follow-up to Scouts Out, the first extensive treatment of the subject in English, focuses on the battles and personalities found in ranks of the Waffen-SS, Luftwaffe, and other divisions.

Covers armored reconnaissance in Poland, France in 1940, the Balkans, North Africa, the Eastern Front, Italy, and the Western Front

Numerous firsthand accounts and after-action reports

Analysis of recon operations, from tactics and doctrine to vehicles and commanders
