Description: ix + 278pp., b/w plates, maps, appends., bibliog., index, Claims that in mid-October 1941 Nazi Germany was on the brink of victory having destroyed the capitals defences but was held up by a handful of Red Army men & women. Since 1990 & the opening of the Bundesarchiv to historians & subsequent publications by Oleg Bartov & others revealing the catastrophic & irreparable losses suffered by the German armies by this stage it seems remarkable that books like this can still be written; the cold war is over & the genius of Joseph Stalin & his high command can be admitted
