- catalog abstract ""Stalin involved himself in every aspect of the war effort, including its smallest details, and Stalin's War is the first book to examine the Nazi invasion from the perspective of the Soviet premier himself, as well as from the viewpoints of his leading commanders, including Zhukov, Chuikov, and Rokossovsky. Accessible and compelling, this work brings to life - in all its awesome grandeur and minute human misery - what the Russians call the "Great Patriotic War." Historian and former soldier Edwin P. Hoyt details Stalin's military strategies to defeat Germany and his struggles to expand his Soviet empire. Here is the savage 900-day siege of Leningrad; the vicious street-to-street, building-to-building fighting of Stalingrad; the titanic clash at Kursk (the largest tank battle ever fought); the drive across Eastern Europe to the borders of Germany; the triumphant capture of Berlin, the Nazi capital; and the postwar Soviet creation of Communist puppet regimes in Eastern Europe."--Jacket.".
