Items related to The Battle for Moscow
In November 1941 Hitler ordered German forces to complete the final drive on the Soviet capital, now less than 100 kilometres away. Army Group Centre was pressed into the attack for one last attempt to break Soviet resistance before the onset of winter. From the German perspective the final drive on Moscow had all the ingredients of a dramatic final battle in the east, which, according to previous accounts, only failed at the gates of Moscow. David Stahel challenges this well-established narrative by demonstrating that the last German offensive of 1941 was a forlorn effort, undermined by operational weakness and poor logistics and driven forward by what he identifies as National Socialist military thinking. With unparalleled research from previously undocumented army files and soldiers' letters, Stahel takes a fresh look at the battle for Moscow, which even before the Soviet winter offensive, threatened disaster for Germany's war in the east.

Book Description:
This is a major new account of the German drive on Moscow in November 1941, one of the largest and most significant battles of the Second World War. Drawing on unparalleled research, David Stahel explores the disastrous erosion of German strength, which, even before the Soviet winter had spelled disaster.
About the Author:
David Stahel is the author of four previous books on Nazi Germany's war against the Soviet Union.
