Tramp in Armour chronicles the desperate, defiant journey of Sergeant Barnes and his men as they drive their battered Matilda tank westward toward Dunkirk, fighting through German-occupied territory with dwindling fuel, failing ammunition, and a mission that should be impossible to complete.\n\nColin Forbes, the pen name of Raymond Harold Sawkins, was a master of the high-octane wartime thriller, and this breakthrough 1969 novel illustrates his remarkable gift for sustaining tension across a relentless, episodic narrative. Drawing on the authentic geography and grim realities of the Fall of France, Forbes constructs a story that is as much a character study in resilience and leadership as it is a pulse-pounding adventure. The novel stands as a gripping testament to the dogged British spirit under fire — and the question of whether courage alone can carry a tank to safety will keep the reader riveted to the very last page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203124142299,"sku":"2026100009408-SECONDHAND","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/4721d513-b34b-4403-b193-0464266bf18f.png?v=1788144662","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009408-secondhand-tramp-in-armour","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
