Beevor, Antony - Stalingrad - ( Item 140262 )
Published in London by Folio Society. 2010. First Thus. Fine Hardback. No inscriptions or bookplates. Fine slipcase. New introduction by the author. Bound in blocked buckram. Set in Adobe Garamond Pro with Futura Condensed display. In June 1941, as Stalin clung to the belief that reports of German troops massing on the border were part of an English plot, the Sixth Army (which Hitler declared could 'storm the heavens') was already invading. It would halt only at the banks of the Volga, where the battle for Stalingrad began. A titanic clash between Hitler and Stalin, this was the most pitiless and bitterly fought conflict in the history of modern warfare. The final death toll is impossible to know for certain, but estimates place it between 1.7 and 2 million, with as many killed by cold, starvation and disease as by bullets. As he reveals in his new introduction, Antony Beevor was fortunate enough to gain unprecedented access to Russian military archives, most importantly uncensored reports written to Stalin – a window of opportunity that has now closed. Beevor's masterly and ground-breaking narrative history will ensure this battle remains enshrined in the popular imagination.
