OSTFRONT 1944: The German Defensive Battles on the Russian Front in
1944 Alex Buchner. In 1944, when the entire Russo-German front was
"ablaze" under continual Soviet attacks, wrong estimations by the
highest German command led to critical decisions with grave
consequences. The Red Army was growing increasingly stronger, and
launched a major offensive. They engaged the Germans in a series of
battles - Cherkassy, Tarnopol, Crimea, Vetebsk, Brody, Jassy - That
ended in the collapse of Army Group Center, and catastrophic German
losses. These battles cost the German army in the east well over a
half-million casualties. The entire story is set forth in this new
book by Alex Buchner. This in-depth study uses presently available
sources and the reports of still-living participants, to document
the events on the Eastern Front of 1944. It tells the story from
the German point of view, reflecting on what is considered the most
barbarous fighting of World War II. Alex Buchner is the author of
several World War II studies, including The German Infantry
Handbook 1939-1945, available from Schiffer Military History.
