About this title

Synopsis

几十年来，西方的民间和官方历史学家发表了大量从德国视角看苏德战争的文章。实际中，自20世纪50年代以来，德国的档案和备忘录就已经可以轻易的获取。出于意识形态、渠道和语言的障碍，苏联方面的材料就被掩盖了。即使被翻译出版，大多数苏联方面的资料也充斥着必要的意识形态辞令，这使得他们关于事实的记述更像是宣传。另一方面，不管是有心还是无意，德国方面的资料常常和苏联方面的一样是片面的，这使我们对这场德国人称之为“东线”的宏大战争产生了误解。

From the Back Cover

"When Titans Clashed represents by all and any reckoning a book whose time has come. The authors' clear and vigorous narrative leaves no doubt about the key decisions and the critical encounters in these massive engagements."--John Erickson, author of The Road to Stalingrad

"A compelling narrative of an epic conflict. No other work has answered with greater authority the lingering historical question--how did the Red Army defeat Nazi Germany?"--Von Hardesty, author of Red Phoenix: The Rise of Soviet Air Power, 1941-1945

"Exceptionally authoritative and exceptionally readable. The cogent assessments of Red Army commanders are not to be missed."--Russell F. Weigley, author of The American Way of War

"Certain to become the standard reference on the most important campaign of the Second World War."--Richard R. Muller, author of The German Air War in Russia

"Corrects longstanding misconceptions and puts a human 'face' on the 'faceless' Soviet army."--O. A. Rzheshevsky, Chief, Department for Studies of the Twentieth-Century Wars, Institute of World History, Moscow

"Indispensable."--Dale R. Herspring, author of The Soviet High Command, 1967-1989
