Review: World War II River Assault Tactics


World War II River Assault Tactics
World War II River Assault Tactics by Gordon L. Rottman

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Decent Osprey in the tactics series. First part handles the equipment and procedures for bridge building, from rope bridges and rafts to Baileys. Second part handles contested river crossings, both defensive and offensive.

The drawings and pictures are very useful as engineering equipment does not often get so much pictorial attention: it really helped me to see the Bedford folding boat lorry to understand what a bridging column must have looked like.
