The legendary siege of Stalingrad is brilliantly chronicled in this book. The book includes plenty of information about the Generals and their strategy, but the author is at his best describing the bloody battle from the soldiers' point of view. The author makes extensive use of Russian sources to tell the story in startling detail. Available at the CMC library. *****
