Revised and updated to reflect recent Russian and Western scholarship on the subject, this new edition maintains the 1995 original's distinction as a crucial volume in the history of World War II and of the Soviet Union and the most informed and compelling perspective on one of the greatest military confrontations of all time.

In 1941, when Pearl Harbor shattered America's peacetime pretensions, the German blitzkrieg had already blasted the Red Army back to Moscow. Yet, less than four years later, the Soviet hammer-and-sickle flew above the ruins of Berlin, stark symbol of a miraculous comeback that destroyed the Germany Army and put an end to Hitler's imperial designs. Drawing on the massive and unprecedented release of Soviet archival documents, David Glantz and noted military historian Jonathan House expand and elaborate our picture of the Soviet war effort.

Rafts of newly available official directives, orders, and reports reveal the true nature and extraordinary scale of Soviet military operations as they swept across the 1,000 miles from Moscow to Berlin, featuring stubborn defenses and monumental offensives and counteroffensives and ultimately costing the two sides combined a staggering 20 million casualties.

This is the best treatment of the Eastern Front I'm aware of.
The narrator's pronunciation was well into 'so bad it's good' territory. The highlight was Ardennes being pronounced something "Ar-de-Nez", but Konev and Vistula were also mangled.

Great content, comical pronounciation

What I didn't like about this audiobook: the many lists of general X having his army, fighting at place Y, against the army of general Z, with xx light tanks, yy heavy tanks, zz howitsers, etc. Not easy to remember when walking and listening. I want to hear about the political meta-shenanigans
Even though the narrator has a plessant voice and is easy to follow, I disliked his pronunciation of German words. Sadly, such words are common in a book like this.

Too many lists!

It's a great book well worth a read on paper but whereas effort is put into other titles to provide pdf files with pertinent maps and tables, having tables of armaments, troop numbers losses etc becomes meaningless without a visual representation as does following battle details without maps.
My advice is not to get this audio book but try and actually get a paper copy where you can actually follow the narrative without getting thoroughly lost.

A decent study ruined by lack of Maps and tables.

The narrator spoils this book to the point of making it unlistenable an interesting subject spoilt by dreadful narration

Narrator is dire
