Synopsis

This definitive history examines the Nazi-Soviet military conflict from Hitler and Stalin's pre-war expectations through the pivotal battles of 1942-43 and the Soviet offensives of 1944-45. It explores why the war unfolded as it did, why the Wehrmacht lost, and why the Red Army triumphed at such a high cost. The second edition incorporates a decade of new research and ongoing controversies surrounding this critical period.
