The Red Army's leading operational theorist in the 1930s, Georgii
Samoilovich Isserson is perhaps best known as the mastermind behind
the "deep operation," which became the cornerstone of Soviet
offensive operations in World War II. Drawing from an in-depth
analysis of Isserson's numerous published and unpublished works,
his arrest file in the former KGB archives, and interviews with his
family, this book provides the first full-length biography of a man
usually overlooked by contemporary historians. Two chapters are
devoted to the first 30 years of Isserson's life, but the bulk of
the narrative deals with the flowering of his intellectual talents
from 1929 through 1941. Additional chapters deal with Isserson's
arrest and his remaining 35 years, 14 of which were spent in labor
camps and internal exile.
