"An excellent
little book for WWII novices and great value for money." - Wargames
Illustrated
Without the Red (or Soviet) Army, it is likely that the Western
Allies would have taken much longer to defeat the Third Reich – they may even
have lost altogether. However even decades after the war’s end, little is widely
known about this giant organization that numbered millions of soldiers. Broken
down by key battles or campaigns within each theatre of war, Order of Battle:
The Red Army in World War II shows the strengths and organizational structures
of the Red Army’s ground forces campaign by campaign, building into a detailed
compendium of information.
With extensive organizational diagrams and full-colour campaign maps
showing the disposition of units, Order of Battle: The Red Army in World War II
is an easy-to-use guide to the Russian, Polish, Czech and units of other
nationalities that served as part of Stalin’s army, their strengths during key
campaigns and battles, and details of where they served throughout the war. The
book will be an essential reference guide for any serious enthusiast of World
War II.
