I was excited to read this and a great deal of the book deals with an extensive introduction of the war from before the beginning to that point.

Not enough about Kursk, and what is about Kursk is not well done
I have to disagree with the reviewers who praised this book, which has serious flaws.

Great Story of WW2 Eastern Front
No wonder the Germans on Hogan's Heroes didn't want to go to the Russian Front!

massive noise
Two million men, six thousand tanks, thirty-five thousand artillery pieces and over five thousand aircraft got together in early July, 1943 in an attempt to annihilate each other.
