Taming the Landmine - Peter Stiff - Galago - 1986 - Hard cover with dust cover in good, clean and tight condition.

Peter Stiff has written an excellent account of the evolution of landmine protected vehicles in southern africa. Apart from an initial section on early armoured vehicles and their protective capabilities, the book focuses on the development thru trial, error and experience of mine-protected vehicles, firstly in Rhodesia in response to the terrorist mining campaign and then in South Africa as the terrorist threat their escalated.
The book contains a large number of photographes of the various vehicles that were developed and used, culminating with the current South African mine-protected armoured fighting vehicles which are some of the best available in the world. All in all, it's a very good read while the accompanying photo's really make the book.
