Description
This study assesses the Soviet and Waffen-SS troops who clashed in the cities of Kharkov and Rostov-on-Don on the Eastern Front during 1942-43. The cities of Kharkov and Rostov-on-Don suffered exceptionally severe fighting as the Axis invasion of the Soviet Union unfolded.
Chris McNab examines the fighting men of the Red Army and the Waffen-SS who engaged in three battles - one for Rostov and two for Kharkov - highlighting the key differences between these two opponents in terms of training, tactics, weaponry, ideology, and motivation.
The book features specially commissioned artwork and mapping, as well as carefully chosen archive photographs, providing a detailed and visually engaging account of these pivotal battles.
