The long awaited one-volume campaign history from the leading
experts of the decisive clash of Nazi and Soviet forces at
Stalingrad; an abridged edition of the five volume Stalingrad
Trilogy Praise for The Stalingrad Trilogy: David Glantz has done
something that very few historians achieve. He has redefined an
entire major Subject: The Russo-German War of 1941—1945. His
exploration of newly available Russian archive records has made him
an unrivaled master of Soviet sources. His command of German
material is no less comprehensive. Add to this perceptive insight
and balanced judgment, and the result is a Series of seminal and
massive volumes that come as close as possible to ‘telling it
like it was.&’ Glantz has done some of his best work with
Jonathan House. The Stalingrad Trilogy is the definitive account of
World War II’s turning point."* - World War II "Undoubtedly, the
best researched narrative of Soviet-German battle during the
period. . . . Thorough, informative, scrupulously accurate, and
told with remarkable precision and reliability." - Journal of
Military History Glantz and House have produced seminal studies of
major events on the Eastern Front. In terms of research, insight,
and revision, this is their best yet [reflecting] an unrivalled
access to and mastery of written and human Russian sources on the
Great Patriotic War." - Slavic Review "No literature review of the
Nazi-Soviet war could be complete without the outstanding work done
by David Glantz and Jonathan House. What they have done is
illustrate how much more there is to the Battle of Stalingrad and
why their more comprehensive account changes our understanding of
the campaign. The late John Erickson wrote that the research of
Glantz and House reflected an ‘encyclopedic knowledge’ of the
Nazi-Soviet war and constituted a benchmark for excellence in the
field." - War in History "Glantz and House [have written] the
definitive history of the Stalingrad campaign. Their trilogy,
backed by meticulous scholarship and refreshingly fair-minded,
significantly alters long-accepted views of several important
aspects of the campaign. . . . A monumental work that is unlikely
to be surpassed as an account of the most important single campaign
of the Second World War." - Ewan Mawdlsey, author of Thunder in the
East: the Nazi-Soviet War, 1941—1945
