Stalingrad_Front cover

A classic, hailed by historians worldwide as the definitive account of World War II’s most harrowing battle. Recounted as a narrative history, Stalingrad showcases Beevor’s skill for combining a storyteller’s skills with academic rigour: the result is a gripping read that conveys the horrors experienced by soldiers on both sides of the conflict, and of the civilians trapped on an urban battlefield. Considered to be an unprecedented work of military history, Stalingrad is essential reading for any Army officer, regardless of rank.
