From the Back Cover:
"The Battle of Kursk combines the authors' encyclopedic knowledge of their subject with a panoramic narrative of military operations to challenge the 'myths of Kursk.' Drawing heavily upon hitherto classified Soviet material, as well as German sources, the work is both original and revisionist, making it a major contribution to our understanding of one of the most important operations of the Second World War."--John Erickson, author of The Road to Stalingrad
About the Author:
"At last we have an account of the battle of Kursk from the Soviet perspective. And what an account! It is meticulously researched, persuasively argued, full of new and important findings, and written with verve and pathos. This is operational history at its best."--Joel S. A. Hayward, author of Stopped at Stalingrad
David M. Glantz is founder and former director of the U.S. Army's Foreign Military Studies Office. Among his many books are Stumbling Colossus: The Red Army on the Eve of World War and Zhukov's Greatest Defeat: The Red Army's Epic Disaster in Operation Mars, 1942.
Jonathan M. House is professor of history at Gordon College and the author of Towards Combined Arms Warfare and Military Intelligence, 1870-1991. Glantz and House also coauthored When Titans Clashed: How the Red Army Stopped Hitler.
