Reviews
Listed in Military History Monthly's round up of the best military history titles for March 2018. * Military History Matters (Reviewer) *
Excellent. * Miniature Wargames - Chris Jarvis *
The author does a good job of weaving the various parts of the thread together; German feuding, Britain's concern that the Russians might collapse and the Soviet Union's vulnerability to Stalin's delusions. * Army Rumour Service *
Authors Jacobsen and Stewart provide thrilling and detailed information about Hitler's first defeat on the eastern Front, and the entire book reads like the premise for a new blockbuster film. An amazing tale, mde all the more enthralling by the fact it remained untold for more than three quarters of a century. * Books Monthly *
