ReviewsAnother one for military historians and students - though people who enjoy real-life combat accounts will also lap it up. I can't comment on the historical accuracy, but I can say that this is a thrilling account of one of the main thrusts of the allies into the Russian heartland. Stirring stuff. * Books Monthly 30/01/2015 * This is an excellent read with an incredible amount of material included; this is a 'one-stop-shop' for those wanting to know about the battle of Stalingrad. * Scale Military Modelller Magazine 05/07/2015 * The quality of this book as a reference and a history is simply outstanding ... I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to better appreciate the nature and conditions of the war in Russia and, more specifically, within Stalingrad. * War History Online 25/03/2015 *
