Review
All the praise heaped on this book is justified. Using diaries, letters and the fruit of painstaking research, the complex events of this scarcely credible campaign are unfolded in a brilliant and harrowing narrative. It must rank as one of the best works of military history ever written. - review by Johnny de Falbe |

Probably the most important battle of the twentieth century, Stalingrad was also one of the most confused, drawn-out and deliberately obfuscated (by both sides). Hitler's advance was checked here, and the tide of the war turned. Hitler knew it, and threw all available resources into it; so did Stalin. And though the two sides were, in theory, ideological opposites, their fighting methods were similarly ruthless and dismissive of human life.
