Scorched Earth (Hitler's War on Russia #2)

Scorched Earth (Hitler's War on Russia #2)

Paul Carell
0/5 ( ratings)
Planned as the second part of a vast war trilogy, Scorched Earth is the story of the German war in Russia—seen through German eyes—from the first dramatic Russian victory at Stalingrad to the total collapse of the German front in the summer of 1944. The German defeat at Stalingrad exploded the myth of German invincibility and has, naturally enough, acquired a kind of sombre glamour in the popular mind. Military experts, however—in Germany, the West, and in Russia alike—have long agreed that the key battle of the Eastern front was not Stalingrad but Kursk. This battle of the Kursk salient—Operation Citadel—forms the central part of this book.

Published simultaneously with this edition is Paul Carell’s first volume [...] Hitler Moves East, an extraordinarily vivid reconstruction of a struggle which, in the size of the forces involved and the ferocity of the fighting, was unparalleled in the history of war.
—from the back cover

There is an eight page section of photographs between pages 304 and 305.
Includes Documents, a Bibliography and an Index
