The Desert Rats: The 7th Armoured Division in World War II is a historical non-fiction book written by John Parker that tells the story of the 7th Armoured Division, a British armoured division that fought in North Africa during World War II. The book focuses on the experiences of the soldiers who served in the division, from their training in the UK to their battles against the German and Italian forces in Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia. The book begins with an introduction to the history of the 7th Armoured Division, established in 1938 as a mobile force designed to operate in the deserts of North Africa. The author describes the selection and training of the soldiers, who were mostly young men from working-class backgrounds, and how they were equipped with the latest tanks and other military hardware. The reader is taken through the challenges faced by the soldiers during their training, including the harsh conditions of the desert environment and the difficulties of living in the field. Once the division was deployed to North Africa, they faced off against the German and Italian forces, who had been entrenched in the region for years. The author describes the brutal battles that ensued, including the Battle of Sidi Rezegh, where the division suffered heavy losses but managed to hold off the enemy advance.
The Desert Rats: The 7th Armoured Division in World War II - историческая научно-популярная книга Джона Паркера, повествующая о 7-й бронетанковой дивизии, британская бронетанковая дивизия, которая воевала в Северной Африке во время Второй мировой войны. Книга посвящена опыту солдат, которые служили в дивизии, от их обучения в Великобритании до их сражений против немецких и итальянских войск в Египте, Ливии и Тунисе. Книга начинается с введения в историю 7-й бронетанковой дивизии, созданной в 1938 году как мобильные силы, предназначенные для действий в пустынях Северной Африки. Автор описывает отбор и обучение солдат, которые в основном были молодыми людьми из рабочего класса, и то, как они были оснащены новейшими танками и другой военной техникой. Читатель проходит через проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются солдаты во время обучения, включая суровые условия пустынной среды и трудности жизни в поле. Как только дивизия была переброшена в Северную Африку, они столкнулись с немецкими и итальянскими войсками, которые закрепились в регионе в течение многих лет. Автор описывает последовавшие жестокие бои, в том числе битву при Сиди-Резег, где дивизия понесла большие потери, но сумела сдержать наступление противника.
