They are English translations of old books from the '80s.

I have Light Jagdpanzer and the Pz.I/II book.

Light Jagdpanzer covers the Hetzer fairly well, but there are better books. Such as Jentz's Osprey book, Panzer Tracts and that MBI book. Also covered are the Jagdpanzer IV tanks, this is not bad coverage. Also there is a little coverage of the lesser know weird versions like the E-10 (drawings), E-25, Panzer IV (Long) E -- which was a Jagdpnzer IV with funny wheels. For $50 the Hetzer and Jagdpanzer IV coverage is not bad.

I don't like the Pz.I/II book at all. If your're at all interested in these vehicles there is much superior coverage in Panzer Tracts 1-1, 1-2, 2-2 and (I assume) 2-1 when it comes out.

Paul.
