Ferdinand and Elefant Tank Destroyer by Thomas Anderson chronicles the story of WWII’s largest and most statistically successful tank destroyer, tracing its technical evolution from the Porsche Tiger prototype to the Ferdinand used in Operation Citadel (Battle of Kursk) and its later modification and redesignation as the Elefant in the desperate fighting around Berlin. Set firmly on the Eastern Front, the book examines how just 91 machines inflicted a disproportionate toll on Soviet armor, combining battle narratives with analysis of design, deployment, and battlefield performance to offer a vivid, operationally focused account.
Drawing on original German archival material, private collections and heretofore unpublished photographs, this illustrated history emphasizes primary-source research and visual documentation to illuminate both technical details and combat use. The title is presented as a richly illustrated study, featuring numerous photographs and archival images that complement detailed examinations of development, modifications and operational history by Thomas Anderson.

New: Fresh Out of Bootcamp
Flawless and untested. This book is in pristine, new condition and ready for its first assignment.
Like New: Light Combat Experience
Almost new and in great shape. It has clearly been read before and is ready to fight again, but it shows very little wear from its time in the field.
Good: A Few Scars or Shell Shock
A reliable veteran. The book might have some bent corners or a dust cover with a few scratches, but it’s still sturdy and standing tall.
Fair: Battle-Hardened
Visible signs of a long campaign. Expect some stains, bent pages, and perhaps some minor tears on the cover. It’s seen the trenches, but the intel inside is still solid.
Poor: Survived Iwo Jima
This one has been through the meat grinder. It carries noticeable damage, heavy staining, or significant wear—but like any old soldier, it would love to be read one last time before it retires.
