Red Storm Over the Balkans - David M. Glantz
The Failed Soviet Invasion of Romania, Spring 1944 (Modern War Studies)
KORTE INHOUD
Using Soviet and German archival succes, Glantz proves that Stalin had intended to move deep into the Balkans as soon as possible with postwar hegemony in mind, while pursering a broad-front strategy.......His study corrects a sixty-year misinterpretation of Soviet Army operations along the Romanian approaches to the Balkans in 1944 and adds tremendously to our understanding of the war's conduct in the east"
"With his Usual command of the sources and devotion to detail, Glantz once again brings light a little-known episode of the struggle on te eastern front. He shows that, contrary to the common image of the Soviet juggernaut rolling over all opposition, there were places where the combination of Soviet overreaching combined with German reactions could produce sharp and bloody defeats at the hands of the still-dangerous Wehrmacht......
Essetial reading for students of Word War II."
