June 1944: In Operation Bagration, more than two million Red Army
soldiers, facing 500,000 German soldiers, finally avenged their defeat
in Operation Barbarossa in 1941. The same month saw the Allies triumph
on the beaches of Normandy, but, despite the myths that remain, it was
the events on the Eastern Front that sealed Hitler's fate and destroyed
Nazism.
In his new book, bestselling historian Jonathan Dimbleby describes and
analyses this momentous year, covering the military, political and
diplomatic story in his evocative style. Drawing on previously
untranslated German, Russian and Polish sources, we see how
sophisticated new forms of deception and ruthless Partisan warfare
shifted the Soviets’ fortunes, how their triumphs effectively gave
Stalin authority to occupy Eastern Europe and how it was the events of
1944 that enabled Stalin to dictate the terms of the post-war
settlement, laying the foundations for the Cold War . . .
