In 1996, Nuts & Bolts Publishing house reported for the first time on the four-wheel armoured scout cars (from author Tony Greenland). This issue no#4 was sold out after a short time. Though the demand for this now out of print book still continues to this day.
They have therefore decided to take up this topic again and to present all vehicles of the 2nd generation of these armoured scout vehicles, i.e. the Sd.Kfz. 221/222/223/247 (4-wheel)/260 and 261 and their well-known variants from our armoured car specialist Holger Erdmann. 
This time also in the now usual manner with 293 historical photos in b/w, 11 tables with technical data and 151 color photos of museum vehicles of the types Sd.Kfz. 222 and 223 or their main parts, 16 camouflage and marking drawings by Laurent Lecocque; 200 technical drawings and, for the first time, sketches of all units that were in use with these vehicle types.
In order to save postage for our customers, we need to stay under 1kg weight per book. Therefore, present in this story are 232 pages in German and English. The book also presents twenty photos of three models built by Vinnie Branigan and Roland Greth here.
