07275) The Eastern Front in photographs 1941 - 1945 , Professor John & Ljubica Erickson , Carlton books London 2001 , On Sunday morning June 22, 1941, Adolf Hitler launched the greatest land campaign in world history: Operation Barbarossa, the invasion of the Soviet Union. This began a period of conflict without match: total war, stupefying in its dimension, horrendous in its cruelty and harrowing in its degradation. The Soviet-German War of 1941-45 is not only the `unknown` war but it was a complex of wars: a

battlefield encounter, a racial war, a civil war, an ideological war and a coalition war. Published to coincide with the sixtieth anniversary of the beginning of this conflict, The Eastern Front in Photographs illustrates every aspect of the Eastern Front campaigns, from the Nazis` early Blitzkrieg successes through the turning-point of Stalingrad to the climactic fall of Berlin. It presents a panoramic view of this war using many images from Russian collections that have never been published in the West before, augmented by images from German and British sources.

Written by one of the world`s leading experts on the subject, Professor John Erickson, and his wife, Ljubica, The Eastem Front in Photographs is an authoritative and unforgettable account of the conflict that sealed the fate of Nazi Germany and drew the political and geographical boundaries of the postwar world
