Description
Dawn on Sunday 22 June 1941 saw the opening onslaughts of Operation
Barbarossa as German forces stormed forward into the Soviet Union. Few of
them were to survive the five long years of bitter struggle.??A posting to
the Eastern Front during the Second World War was rightly regarded with
dread by the German soldiers. They were faced by the unremitting hostility
of the climate, the people and even, at times, their own leadership. They
saw epic battles such as Stalingrad and Kursk, and yet it was a daily war
of attrition which ultimately proved fatal for Hitler's ambition and the
German military machine. ??In this classic account leading military
historian James Lucas examines different aspects of the fighting, from war
in the trenches to a bicycle-mounted anti-tank unit fighting against the
oncoming Russian hordes. Told through the experiences of the German
soldiers who endured these nightmarish years of warfare, War on the Eastern
Front is a unique record of this cataclysmic campaign.
