Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. In June 1941, one of the pivotal and defining moments of World War 2 occurred as the German forces swept eastwards from their lines in Poland and Central Europe, to take on the might of Soviet Russia. Over the next six months , Axis forces travelled ever eastwards, surrounding Leningrad and reaching the very gates of Moscow itself, before the harsh and unremitting Russian winter set in and the battle for life and death in the field became, for both sides, a war of survival against the elements.Although Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of Russia, is widely perceived as a great land offensive, equally important was the aerial supremacy that the Luftwaffe achieved over the front line during the early phases of the campaign. Without the elimination of the threat posed by the Soviet air force, it would have been impossible for the army to have made the rapid advances during the summer and autumn of 1941.This book, written by a recognised authority on the air war over the Eastern Front, provides an informed, balanced and detailed account of the massive aerial campaign fought in the skies over the Soviet Union following the launch of Operation Barbarossa. Drawing on both Russian and German sources, the strength of the author's writing lies in its detail, his ability to tell the story from the viewpoints of both sides and to put events in both their strategic and tactical contexts. There is also much unique eye-witness material and the text will be accompanied by a large number of rare and previously unpublished photographs; biographical studies of the major players in the conflict; data tables; technical assessments and appendices.Compiled by one of the world's leading experts on the air war over the Eastern Front, Barbarossa: The Air Battle is the first in a series of books to cover the major phases of World War 2, in this theatre of operations. It will be required reading for all historians of the Luftwaffe during World War2 and those with a specific interest in the use of air power on the Eastern Front, in particular. …

Hardcover. Condizione: New. New oversized case wrapped hardcover. Folio ( 8.5 x 1 x 12 inches) Pages are clean and free of marks or underlining. Includes glossary, timeline, appendix, maps, and photos. 324 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. Illustrated with over 250 photos, many never previously published, this is an objective, balanced account, published in time for the 75th anniversary of the start of Operation Barbarossa on 22nd June 2016. Operation Barbarossa was the largest military campaign in history. Springing from Hitler's fanatical desire to conquer the Soviet territories, defeat Bolshevism and create 'Lebensraum' for the German people, it pitted two diametrically opposed armed forces against one another. The invasion began with 4.5 million troops attacking 2.3 million defenders. On one side was the Wehrmacht, without any doubt the world's most advanced military force. On the other were the Soviet armed forces, downtrodden, humiliated, decapitated and terrorized by an autocratic and crude dictator with no military education whatsoever. Based on decades of research work in both German and Russian archives, as well as interviews with a large number of key figures and veterans, Operation Barbarossa brings our knowledge on the war on the Eastern Front several big steps forward. It reveals and dispels many myths and misconceptions including: the myth of mass surrenders by Soviet soldiers; the myth about the vast differences in troop casualties between the two sides; the myth of the Soviet partisans and the myth that it was the Arctic cold that halted the German offensive. It also does not shy away from difficult truths such as the true nature of Finland's participation in Operation Barbarossa, and the massive scale of rapes committed by German troops. Christer Bergström has once again produced what will be the definitive account of this monumental campaign. …
