Its failure was a key turning point of the Second World War. The operation was planned as a Blitzkrieg to win Germany its Lebensraum in the east, and the summer of 1941 is well-known for the German army's unprecedented victories and advances. Yet the German Blitzkrieg depended almost entirely upon the motorised Panzer groups, particularly those of Army Group Centre. Using archival records, in this book David Stahel presents a history of Germany's summer campaign from the perspective of the two largest and most powerful Panzer groups on the Eastern front. Stahel's research provides a fundamental reassessment of Germany's war against the Soviet Union, highlighting the prodigious internal problems of the vital Panzer forces and revealing that their demise in the earliest phase of the war undermined the whole German invasion.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 23mmItem Weight: 790gAuthor: David StahelGenre: HistoryBook Series: Cambridge Military HistoriesTopic: Military HistoryRelease Year: 2011 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
