Barbarossa through German Eyes
JONATHAN TRIGG
After D-Day and VE-Day through German eyes, Armourer contributor Jonathan Trigg turns his attention to the largest invasion in history, the Soviet Union in 1941. Like the other books, it tells the story from the German side, but using the experiences of officers and ordinary soldiers alike. Unlike the war in the West, this was a battle of extermination. You get to follow the story as it slowly unravels and how surprised the Germans were by the T-34, the vast distances, and the ability of the Russians to fight on. Recommended.
