Operation Barbarossa, Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union in
1941, led to one of the most brutal campaigns of World War II: of
the estimated 70 million people who died in World War II, over 30
million died on the Eastern Front. Although it has previously been
argued that the campaign was a pre-emptive strike, in fact, Hitler
had been planning a war of intervention against the USSR ever since
he came to power in 1933. Using previously unseen sources,
acclaimed military historian Rolf-Dieter Muller shows that Hitler
and the Wehrmacht had begun to negotiate with Poland and had even
considered an alliance with Japan soon after taking power. Despite
the signing of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, at the declaration of
war in September 1939, military engagement with the Red Army was
still a very real and imminent possibility. In this book, Muller
takes us behind the scenes of the Wehrmacht High Command, providing
a fascinating insight into an unknown story of World War II.
