Hitler's War on Russia: The story of the German Defeat (1966) By Paul Carell
Launched with an immense invasion force of three million men, Germany's surprise attack against Russia in 1941 was planned by Hitler to crush the Soviets within eight weeks. Instead, 'Operation Barbarossa' lingered on until, in 1943, the German fighting machine broke down at Stalingrad in one of the most shattering defeats of the century. This war of attrition is here reconstructed in authentic detail.
