The battles in Russia played the decisive part in Hitler's defeat.
Gigantic, prolonged, and bloody, they contrasted with the general
nature of the fighting on other fronts. The Russians fought on
their own in "their" theater of war and with an indepedent
strategy. Stalinist Russia was a country radically different from
its liberal democratic allies. Hitler and the German high command,
for their part, conceived and carried out the Russian campaign as a
singular "war of annihilation." This riveting new book is a
penetrating, broad-ranging, yet concise overview of this vast
conflict. It investigates the Wehrmacht and the Red Army and the
command and production systems that organized and sustained them.
It considers a range of further themes concerning this most
political of wars. Benefiting from a post-Communist, post-Cold War
perspective, the book takes advantage of a wealth of new studies
and source material that have become available over the last
decade. Readers from history buffs to scholars will find something
new in this exciting new book.
