Stalingrad - Turning Point of War II on the Eastern Front
In February of 1943, the massive German army surrendered in the dead of a horrific Soviet winter to over 1 million hardened Soviet troops in what was the largest, most desperate battle of World War II. Acclaimed British historian Anthony Bevor's, "Stalingrad: The Fateful Seige 1942-1943" is a sweeping account of this titanic struggle with 2.2 million casualties that decided the outcome of World War II and settled the fate of Germany.
