This publication meticulously analyzes the development of German armored forces from their origins in World War I, through the secret formation of units during the interwar period (from 1933), up to their pivotal role in World War II. The book explores the genesis and evolution of terms such as "Panzerwaffe" (referring to armored forces) and "Panzertruppen" (identifying elite armored units), both coined by General Heinz Guderian.
