I would love to start an armored model from the Korean War (Pershing, Sherman, T-34, etc.). Can anyone recommend a good book for not only as a reference of Korean armor but tactics used and analysis of campaigns? Are any books about the Korean War from Osprey any good?

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy!

Korean war era, eh mate?
There are alot of really good books out there, and the Osprey series is a good starting point in your quest. . .these books are excellent point of reference manuals, and in the back of each, there are extensive listings of further reading, websites, etc., to further enhance your research experience. IMHO, you really get your dollars worth 99.999% of the time as well! Good luck with your research, and your build!!
Keep Modeling,
