I have a primary interest in the Sherman which is mainly confined to the Commonwealth use of it but I'd consider myself reasonably knowledgeable on most Shermans. My Library is large and covers almost all the major books on Shermans. The Hunnicutt title is a good start but to tell the truth I have learned so much just reading forums and seeing the questions people ask answered.
One thing I have learnt is that just when you feel yourself to be knowledgeable along comes new information, another is "Never say never".
A few good overall texts are:
Hunnicuts Sherman
M4 Sherman by George Forty
M4 Sherman By Roger Ford
M4 Sherman in action - Squadron
Sherman in US and Allied Service - Osprey
Sherman in UK Service - Osprey
Firefly - hayward
Modelling the US Sherman 75 & 76 (Steve Zaloga) Osprey
Firefly - Osprey
Being a Shermaholic is like being a sponge for all things Sherman:
Books
Posts
Web Articles
Pictures
Reviews
Kits
Accessories
Etc
Cheers
