This is the second book in the Panzer series dedicated to mounted combat in World War II. The first book, "Panzer Trilogy" details the experiences of two tank crews and a tank destroyer reconnaissance section in the European Theater. This volume uses the same trilogy format to follow a Japanese tank crew as they march down the Malaya Peninsula to Singapore. They must overcome the two-headed monster of the British army and jungle covered terrain to secure this key objective. The next vignette follows a British crew fighting to withdrawal across Burma to reach the safety of India ahead of the monsoon season. To complete this quest, they must confront both the aggressive moves of the Japanese Imperial Army and the internal weakness of their own chain-of-command. The final story follows a United States Marine Corps tank crew from their starting point in Hawaii, through their landing on Iwo Jima, and their return to the Islands.
