Dedicated on the title page "À Major Liévin, hommage respectueux - Le dessinateur [illegible] Le Lieutenant [?] Vandenkerk", perhaps two of Liévin's students.Types illustrated include several that appear to be unusual prototypes - Renault FT, Saint-Chamond, Schneider CA1, Mark IV, Whippet Mark A, Medium Mark C, Mark IX, Medium Mark D, American Medium Tank ?1921 prototype, Ford 3-ton Special Tractor, Char Amphibie, Christie, Fiat Type 2000, A7V Elfriede, char Zwittern, Marien-Zwittern half-track? Attractive survey of armoured vehicle types coming out of the First World War.
