Charles Winchester - Ostfront; Hitler's War on Rus sia 1941-45 (1999).jpg

"Ostfront - the War on the Eastern Front 1941-45" details the decisive theatre of World War II. The War in the East remains the greatest land campaign in history in every sense; it was fought on a 1200 mile front from the Arctic Circle to the Caspian Sea, involved more personnel and cost more casualties than any other. Most popular books on the Russian front are based on German sources. The testimonies of de-briefed German officers together with published memoirs have dominated in the English-speaking world. Now, with the availability of hitherto secret Russian archives, a much fuller picture is emerging. Charles Winchester examines the structure, doctrine, leadership, strengths and weaknesses of the Red Army and the German armed forces in the summer of 1941. He focuses on factors such as the way in which rapid expansion of the army of 1940 had diluted the proportion of mechanized forces in the German Army; the logistics nightmare created by the acquisition of motor transport from all over western Europe; how lopsided technological progress in the Red Army sees vast numbers of tanks and aircraft but few radios; how an army built around a culture of the offensive faced a formidable upcoming defensive task. The detailed analysis of the war in the east which follows explodes a range of myths and tackles the key issues; how the Nazi system squandered huge economic advantages; correction of the commonly held myth that the Soviets enjoyed overwhelming industrial and numerical strength; how German racial policies in the east alienated largely sympathetic populations; and the importance of the Allied air campaign against Germany in diverting resources to defend the Reich.

George Forty - The Armies of Rommel (1997).jpg

The test of a great battlefield commander was how he used the forces at his disposal in different situations and at various stages of the conflict. Erwin Rommel - the Desert Fox - employed the German "blitzkrieg" techniques during the rush through the Low Countries and France, and he excelled himself in the Desert Campaign until being swamped by Allied numbers, and returned to France to work with forces now tasked with staving off the Allied invasion. This work, by a veteran tank commander, shows the forces, machinery armament and strategies available to Rommel and how he deployed them in World War II.

Miniatury morskie 119 - Edmund Pioterek - Operacja Husky (1967).jpg

19 kwietnia 1943 r. okręt podwodny JSeraph" wyszedł z bazy w Greenock w kolejny rejs bojowy. Oficerowie i marynarze z zaciekawieniem oglądali cylindryczny, dwumetrowy pojemnik, leżący w pomieszczeniu dziobowym. Dowódca okrętu przed wyjściem w morze poinformował załogę, że pojemnik zawiera tajne urządzenie meteorologiczne, coś w rodzaju pławy, którą dla celów eksperymentalnych mają postawić w pobliżu brzegów Hiszpanii.

Concord 6522 - Robert Kirchubel - Barbarossa (2008 ).jpg

The largest invasion the world has ever seen kicked off on 22 June 1941, as Hitler's massed forces swarmed across the border into the Soviet Union. Operation Barbarossa, as the campaign was named, was supposed to last just ten weeks. In fact, Germany enjoyed five months of victory before they were eventually denied and turned away at the very gates of Moscow. Thus, the long and slow road to defeat began. This new book by Robert Kirchubel outlines Germany's ambitious hopes for Operation Barbarossa via a careful selection of photos.
In typical style for this series of Concord books, the work begins with some concise background text. Here the author explains what led up to the invasion of Russia, as well as providing salient points about the campaign right up to Operation Typhoon, the final assault on Moscow. The core of "Barbarossa" is the set of superb black and white photographs that document this spectacular, but ultimately futile, campaign. Soldiers are seen in all sorts of contexts in the vast steppes of Russia through contemporary camera lenses. There is a wide variety of vehicle types and weapons on show, which will please readers. Vehicles such as trucks, horse-drawn carriages and halftracks are all in evidence, as are numerous captured or destroyed Russian tanks and military vehicles. Photo captions are brief but provide relevant data and information about this long and arduous campaign.
The artist Ramiro Bujeiro has also provided four color plates depicting realistic-looking impressions of German soldiers and officers. These are accompanied by detailed descriptions giving pertinent facts about uniforms and personal equipment. This is an interesting volume packed with unique photos from this important campaign. As the writer states in his concluding paragraph, "When the war in Russia transformed from one of maneuver to one of attrition, it became a war Germany could no longer win." Readers wishing to see how Operation Barbarossa played out, and how German soldiers participated in it, will find this book a valuable ally.

Concord 6525 - Gordon Rottman - Fighting Withdrawa l; The German Retreat in the East 1944-45 (2009).jpg

German forces made impressive advances across vast swathes of Russia after Operation Barbarossa was launched in 1941. Indeed, Blitzkrieg reached the very gates of Moscow. Yet, the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942 marked a decisive turning point in the tide of war on the Eastern Front. What began was a long series of setbacks and defeats, with German forces being rolled back inexorably by the massive Russian juggernaut. The territory that was captured so quickly in 1941-42 was soon being fought for all over again, with German troops extracting a very high price as Russian troops advanced towards Berlin. This new book by Gordon Rottman examines pictorially this long fighting retreat of German forces, with the focus being on the closing years of the war from 1944-45.
This book begins with a concise explanation of the situation in 1944-45, and how German units were organized to try and overcome acute shortages of personnel. Additional divisions were raised in the form of Luftwaffe field divisions, Waffen-SS divisions manned by non-Germanic recruits, and Volkssturm (this name translates as 'People's Assault') units filled with those too young or too old for regular units. The book then proceeds to exhibit German soldiers from this time period in a series of black and white photos. While most photographs portray soldiers, several also show equipment like tanks and transport vehicles. The uniforms and weapons of these soldiers as they retreated westward are on full display, and the selection of photos will no doubt provide plenty of modeling inspiration or historical information. The photo content even extends to showing Volkssturm personnel in the closing weeks of the war.
The centerpiece of the book is a series of four color plates by illustrator Dmitriy Zgonnik. These portray grenadiers from a range of units as they appeared in combat, with pertinent comments on their uniforms, personal equipment and weapons outlined in the accompanying captions. There is a lot of interest in the closing years of WWII, and this book offers a fine collection of photos showing the German infantryman as he fought for his own survival and that of his nation.

Over the Battlefield - Ian Daglish - Operation Blu ecoat; Breakout from Normandy (2009).jpg

This is the story of the British breakthrough begun on 30 July by 11th Armoured Division, Guards Armoured Division, and the infantry of 15th (Scottish) Division. This was initially opposed by 21. Panzerdivision, and later by the Germans' most powerful formations in the west: 9. SS-Panzer `Hohenstaufen' and 10. SS-Panzer `Frundsberg'. Under the hot summer sun, thrust met with counter thrust in a rapidly changing mobile battle, culminating in the August struggle for mastery of Perrier Ridge and Estry, and the Germans' headlong retreat from Normandy.
In common with other titles in the 'Over the Battlefield' series, this entirely new study brings together previously unseen evidence to present an important Normandy battle in very great detail. The unfolding action is illustrated using aerial photography of the battlefield and period Army maps supported by extensive illustrations.

Images of War - Ian Baxter - Hitler's Mountain Tro ops 1939-1945; The Gebirgsjager (2011).jpg

Hitler s mountain troops or Gebirgsjager were a group of elite soldiers ready for battle, whatever the conditions. These mountain men were trained to ski, climb and endure long marches, survive appalling conditions and were given a role as crack shock troops. Yet many of the campaigns in which the Gebirgsjager fought were on level ground where they had little opportunity to demonstrate their unique skills. Instead, they were invariably employed as assault infantry in conventional battle, a role in which every individual trooper excelled, but not one for which they had been trained. They fought in virtually all theatres of World War, notably on the Eastern Front, where operations took them into the Caucasus. The Gebirgsjager were proud to wear the Edelweiss, the famous badge that set them apart and distinguished them as Hitler s mountain men. This superb book shows the Gebirgsjager in training and action from Poland, Norway and France, through Yugoslavia, the Eastern Front and in the closing stages of the War.

Wayne Nelson - A Spy's Diary of World War II; Insi de the OSS with an American Agent in Europe (2009).jpg

Here are the wartime diaries of Wayne Nelson, an OSS officer who served in North Africa and Europe during World War II. A prewar colleague of Allan Dulles, Nelson joined an infant OSS after failing to join the Navy because of a vision disability, and he went on to serve in North Africa, Sicily, Sardinia, Italy, Corsica, and mainland France. Erudite and a skilled writer, Nelson captured intriguing observations about some of the most important spy operations of the war, and his diaries offer a thrilling, readable and informative glimpse into the life of a spy during World War II.

Ben Macintyre - Operation Mincemeat; How a Dead Ma n and a Bizarre Plan Fooled the Nazis and Assured an Allied Victory (2011).jpg

World War II - Ben Macintyre - Operation Mincemeat How a Dead Man a... Fooled the Nazis and Assured an Allied Victory 2011.jpg

Ben Macintyre’s Agent Zigzag was hailed as “rollicking, spellbinding” (New York Times), “wildly improbable but entirely true” (Entertainment Weekly), and, quite simply, “the best book ever written” (Boston Globe). In his new book, Operation Mincemeat, he tells an extraordinary story that will delight his legions of fans.

In 1943, from a windowless basement office in London, two brilliant intelligence officers conceived a plan that was both simple and complicated— Operation Mincemeat. The purpose? To deceive the Nazis into thinking that Allied forces were planning to attack southern Europe by way of Greece or Sardinia, rather than Sicily, as the Nazis had assumed, and the Allies ultimately chose.

Charles Cholmondeley of MI5 and the British naval intelligence officer Ewen Montagu could not have been more different. Cholmondeley was a dreamer seeking adventure. Montagu was an aristocratic, detail-oriented barrister. But together they were the perfect team and created an ingenious plan: Get a corpse, equip it with secret (but false and misleading) papers concerning the invasion, then drop it off the coast of Spain where German spies would, they hoped, take the bait. The idea was approved by British intelligence officials, including Ian Fleming (creator of James Bond). Winston Churchill believed it might ring true to the Axis and help bring victory to the Allies.

Filled with spies, double agents, rogues, fearless heroes, and one very important corpse, the story of Operation Mincemeat reads like an international thriller.

Unveiling never-before-released material, Ben Macintyre brings the reader right into the minds of intelligence officers, their moles and spies, and the German Abwehr agents who suffered the “twin frailties of wishfulness and yesmanship.” He weaves together the eccentric personalities of Cholmondeley and Montagu and their near-impossible feats into a riveting adventure that not only saved thousands of lives but paved the way for a pivotal battle in Sicily and, ultimately, Allied success in the war.

Miniatury morskie 83 - Leon Bielas - Mers-el-Kebir (1963).jpg

Francja chciała mieć jednocześnie armię tak silną, jak niemiecka i flotę tak wielką, jak brytyjska. Byłby to ideał obronności kraju. Ideału tego — dodajmy od razu — nie udało się nigdy urzeczywistnić. Nie mogąc pokonać floty angielskiej, marynarka francuska starała się przynajmniej zapewnić bezpieczeństwo długim liniom komunikacyjnym, łączącym metropolię z odległymi koloniami w Afryce, Ameryce i Azji. Nie istniała jeszcze wtedy silna flota amerykańska ani japońska, a wybrzeżom Francji nie zagrażały młode floty Niemiec, Austro-Węgier, czy Włoch. W XIX w.

Vasily Grossman - A Writer at War; Vasily Grossman with the Red Army, 1941-1945 (2006).jpeg

Edited and translated from the Russian by Antony Beevor and Luba Vinogradova Knopf Canada is proud to present a masterpiece of the Second World War, never before published in English, from one of the great Russian writers of the 20th century – a vivid eyewitness account of the Eastern Front and “the ruthless truth of war.”

When the Germans invaded Russia in 1941, Vasily Grossman became a special correspondent for the Red Star, the Red Army’s newspaper. A Writer at War – based on the notebooks in which Grossman gathered raw material for his articles – depicts the crushing conditions on the Eastern Front, and the lives and deaths of soldiers and civilians alike. It also includes some of the earliest reportage on the Holocaust. In the three years he spent on assignment, Grossman witnessed some of the most savage fighting of the war: the appalling defeats of the Red Army, the brutal street fighting in Stalingrad, the Battle of Kursk (the largest tank engagement in history), the defense of Moscow, the battles in Ukraine and much more.

Historian Antony Beevor has taken Grossman’s raw notebooks, and fashioned them into a narrative providing one of the most even-handed descriptions – at once unflinching and sensitive – we have ever had of what he called “the ruthless truth of war.”

Osprey PL - WB II WS 04 - Jon Latimer - Tobruk 194 1; Pierwsza ofensywa Rommla (2009).jpg

Od początku wojny w rejonie Morza Śródziemnego Włosi żądali od Niemców pomocy materialnej, ci jednak wzbraniali się przed tym, przekonani, że najlepsze wsparcie powinno mieć formę udziału niemieckich jednostek. Już w lipcu 1940 r. zaoferowali, że bombowce dalekiego zasięgu będą operować z Rodos przeciwko żegludze na Kanale Sueskim. Zaproponował i również inne rozwiązania, łącznie z zajęciem Gibraltaru. Zadziwia to, że nie opracowano żadnych planów dotyczących Malty - być może dlatego, że oczekiwano jej szybkiego upadku, ponieważ Brytyjczycy byli zajęci działaniami w Egipcie. Lato trwało, a plany inwazji na Wyspy Brytyjskie traciły na aktualności. Rozważano inne sposoby uderzenia na Wielką Brytanię, łącznie z użyciem Luftwaffe we wschodnim rejonie Morza Śródziemnego, oraz propozycję wysłania zmechanizowanych korpusów, aby wzmocnić włoską inwazję na Egipt. Działo się to przy wsparciu Kriegsmarine, dla której Kanał Sueski stanowił cel najwyższej wagi. Adolf Hitler wysłał gen. mjr. Wilhelma von Thomę, dowódcę Wojsk Szybkich, aby zbadał sytuację. Tymczasem 3. Dywizja Pancerna (DPanc.) została postawiona w stan gotowości, by w każdej chwili mogła wyruszyć do Aftyki.

Henrik Lunde - Hitler's Preemptive War; The Battle Battle for Norway, 1940 (2010).jpg

"Lunde has thoroughly dissected both ground and naval battles and managed to make a complex politico-military situation clear. . . . military collections will want to acquire this excellent effort."-Library Journal
This book describes the often overlooked World War II campaign for Norway-a complex series of battles in which Hitler out-gambled Churchill in order to secure a vital resource lifeline for the Third Reich.
After Hitler conquered Poland and was still fine-tuning his plans against France, the British began to exert control of the coastline of neutral Norway, an action that threatened to cut off Germany's iron-ore conduit to Sweden and outflank from the start its hegemony on the Continent. The Germans responded with a dizzying series of assaults, using every tool of modern warfare developed in the previous generation. Airlifted infantry, mountain troops and paratroopers were dispatched to the north, seizing Norwegian strongpoints while forestalling larger but more cumbersome Allied units.
The German navy also set sail, taking a brutal beating at the hands of Britannia, while ensuring with its sacrifice that key harbors could be held open for resupply. As dive-bombers soared overhead, small but elite German units traversed forbidding terrain to ambush Allied units trying to forge inland. At Narvik, some 6,000 German troops battled 20,000 French and British, until the Allies were finally forced to withdraw by the great disaster in France, which had then gotten underway.
Henrik Lunde, a native Norwegian and former U.S. Special Operations colonel, has written the most objective account to date of a campaign in which 20th-century military innovation found its first fertile playing field.
REVIEWS
"While it's almost impossible to find a new book about a hitherto unexplored WWII-related subject, it's almost as unlikely to discover a new book that turns out to be the best yet written on the topic. . . . Henrik Lunde's new Hitler's Pre-Emptive War is certainly not the first book about the 1940 invasion of Norway and the battles around Narvik, but it sure looks like the best."-Stone and Stone Second World War Books
"Well written with an unbiased eye. . . . Every aspect is covered, with British, French, German and Norwegian viewpoints, decisions and actions all being taken fairly into account. . . . It's an interesting story and one I would recommend." - Military Modeling, 06/2009
"..a detailed, well laid out history... essential reading; a must-have in your military library and a job very well done by the author." Military Model Craft International, 07/2009
"This large book will fuel debate. . . . Exhaustive research and intellectual detachment enable the author to bring objectivity and a fresh interpretation to a subject that has been until now laden with national self-justification. . . . Holds the reader's interest while progressing seamlessly from political and strategic decisions to theater operations and tactics of the various national forces engaged, including describing and analyzing combat on land, at sea, and in the air. . . . This book is a gem."-Parameters

World War II - Osprey - General Military - Prit Buttar - Battlegro... The Assault on Germanys Eastern Front 1944-45 2010.jpeg

In September 1944 the Soviet Army poured into German territory, flooding the martial heartland of the Reich, Prussia. Hopelessly outnumbered by the human wave of the Red Army, the Wehrmacht fought on with determination, but was gradually beaten back. This book describes the great battles that marked the Soviet conquest of Prussia, from Memel to Konigsberg, the Heiligenbeil Pocket to Danzig. Using accounts never before published in English, Prit Buttar looks at the campaign both from a command level, and from the perspective of normal soldiers on the front line.
