Condizione: New. Hardback 208 pagesPublished Price £19.99 Yevgeni Nikolaev, credited with 324 kills, was among the Soviet Unionâs most prominent snipers during the Second World War, and his memoir offers a striking, if highly partisan, account of front-line service, including his experiences during the siege of Leningrad. As an… NKVD member, Nikolaev presents a strongly ideological narrative that incorporates historical distortions, defends the actions of his agency, and characterises German adversaries in overtly derogatory terms. His recollections emphasise the physical hardship and discipline required of Soviet snipers, often contrasting these conditions with the relative comfort of German positions, and portray the Red Army marksman as a morally principled combatant.
