| Summary |
"This book presents ... personal journals of a German soldier who participated in Operation Barbarossa and subsequent battles on the Eastern Front, revealing the combat experience of the German-Russian War as seldom seen before ... In these journals, attacks and counterattacks are described in 'you are there' detail, as Roth wrote privately ... knowing that his honest accounts of the horrors in the East could never pass through Wehrmacht censors"--Jacket. |
