Russia's Heroes, 1941-1945: An Epic Account of Struggle and Survival on the Eastern Front Hardcover - 2001

by Albert Axell


From the publisher

For four years in World War II, out of an unquestioned love for their mother country, the Russian people heroically defended their soil with their blood. This new volume by historian Albert Axell captures in full the valor of the sons and daughters, soldiers and villagers, Cossacks and snipers who battled in Moscow and Stalingrad, in the Caucasus and the Arctic, at the Brest fortress and Kursk Bulge. From the account of the aging Russian general who suffered drenchings in ice-cold water rather than collaborate with his Nazi captors to that of the nineteen-year-old private who flung himself on the gun port of a German pillbox so that his comrades could advance, these pages not only chronicle extraordinary selfless acts of heroism but also rectify an astonishing oversight in innumerable histories of World War II.
