Set against the backdrop of World War II, this volume delves into Hitler's strategic shift towards the East with the launch of Operation Barbarossa. Geoffrey Jukes explores the motivations behind the invasion and provides a detailed account of the ensuing campaign, highlighting key battles such as Stalingrad and Kursk. Despite initial German expectations for a swift victory, the fierce Soviet resistance resulted in a staggering loss of 27 million lives and ultimately led to a significant Soviet resurgence as a global superpower.
