Synopsis: |
"Hitler v Stalin" shows the brutality, horror and heroism of war on the Eastern Front as never before. This authoritative and unforgettable account of the conflict that sealed the fate of Nazi Germany and shaped the world's post-war history was written by Professor John Erickson and his wife, Ljubica. Over 350 rare photographs, many recently released from the Russian archives and previously unpublished in the West, supplemented by images from other major sources, illustrate every phase and aspect of the Eastern Front campaigns, from the Nazis' early Blitzkrieg successes, the battle for Moscow and the terrible siege of Leningrad, through the turning-point street fighting for Stalingrad, and the subsequent Soviet successes at Kursk and Operation Bagration, to the climactic fall of Berlin and the link-up between Soviet and Western armies amid the ruins of the "1000-year Reich". This is total war in its most barbaric form: nearly 30 million Soviet soldiers and citizens were killed during four years of struggle against their German invaders. |
