About this listen

The Russian war effort to defeat invading Axis powers, an effort that assembled the largest military force in recorded history and that cost the lives of more than twenty-five million Soviet soldiers and civilians, was the decisive factor for securing an Allied victory. Now with access to the wealth of film archives and interview material from Russia used to produce the ten-hour television documentary Russia's War, Richard Overy tackles the many persuasive questions surrounding this conflict. Was Stalin a military genius? Was the defense of Mother Russia a product of something greater than numbers of tanks and planes-of something deep within the Russian soul?

smashing read and how time greed can again be seen to consume the land.

this book will be written again and again once my generation have turned to ashes. The read was brilliant the narrator was good and professional to say the least. It's not a book that is a good read it's harsh it's war and it's covered new aspects not covered and it also could be quoted verbatim with some of today's propaganda from the red square...
