" Zetterling and Frankson provide the reader with a complete
picture of Operation Taifun: German defeatm and the ultimate Soviet
resistance in the face of a lethal and determined enemy."-- "The
Russian Review"
"...an excellent book- well researched, fast paced and enjoyable to
read. Both historians and general readers will profit from reading
it."-- "Military Review"
"...tapped a variety of sources to re-create the battle from the
perspectives of both the lowliest soldiers to top commanders. They
show how the failure of the German assault on Moscow had a decisive
influence on the overall Nazi strategy in the East."-- "Toy Solder
& Model Figure"
"The authors set a case for Moscow being the real turning point of
the war, and by the end of the book, it's hard to argue against it.
An excellent publication."-- "WW2 Connection"
"The strength of this work is its focus on that human dimension;
attention is given to field marshals and national leaders, but
equal space is given to soldiers on the front, facing artillery and
mines along with horrible weather. This book places the reader
alongside combatants at all levels."-- "WWII History"
"Well-written and complete with 24 photographs and 7 maps this is
an excellent publication from authors Niklas Zetterling and Anders
Frankson."-- "Warfare Magazine"
