War Without Garlands: Operation Barbarossa 1941-1942
О книге
Аннотация
The German invasion of Russia in 1941 – Operation Barbarossa – was shrouded in the utmost secrecy. Using German sources, the author has investigated an important aspect of the pre-attack deception, the degree to which the German public and armed forces were themselves caught unawares.
