"Sobering. . . . A global view presented with remarkable
clarity."
--"The Boston Globe"
"Probably the best account of the Eastern Front we shall see until
President Putin relaxes his newly imposed restrictions on foreign
access to the files. . . . Bellamy has made a tremendous
contribution to the record of Russia's struggle, for which future
historians will owe a debt."
--"The Sunday Times" (London)
"Bellamy's treatment is authoritative, his judgments thorough and
exacting, and his prose robust."
--The "Daily Telegraph" (London)
