Description

The latest volume in the magisterial Germany and the Second World War series; volume VIII deals with one of the most eventful phases of the Second World War: the battles on the eastern front in 1943 and 1944. In no other period of the war; apart from its concluding phase in 1945; did the Wehrmacht suffer such enormous losses. The land battles of those years; first and foremost the battle of Kursk in the summer of 1943; were among the biggest in world history. In the winter of 1943/44 the Red Army showed itself for the first time capable of conducting large-scale offensives against all German army groups simultaneously. It was no longer a matter of isolated flare-ups: the whole eastern front was in flames. The dramatic climax was reached in the summer of 1944; when the collapse of Army Group Centre led to what was then the heaviest defeat in German military history. It was nevertheless overshadowed by events on the western front; with the Allied invasion of Normandy in June 1944. And it is that which dominates perceptions in western societies to this day and has relegated the catastrophe in the east; despite its unprecedented proportions; to the rank of an almost "forgotten war."
