Thanks to some Christmas and birthday presents, I received David Glantz’ “Stalingrad Trilogy;” operational histories of the German/Soviet campaigns from April 1942-March 1943. This has prompted me to re-read my library of “Eastern Front” books and incorporate the new volumes as I read the entire history of this bitter “war within a war.”
I expect this project to take about a year.
My current reading list is pretty extensive for obvious reasons. I just finished up “Mirrors of Destruction” by Omer Bartov and “The Wansee Coference and the Final Solution” by Mark Roseman. My current reading is as follows:
Ordinary Men - Christopher R. Browning
A War to be Won - Williamson Murray and Allan R. Millett
Why the Allies Won - Richard Overy
A World at Arms: A Global History of World War II - Gerhard L. Weinberg
Partners in Command - Mark Perry
When I get some time to read a page or two for fun I’m slowly working through “Midway” by Mitsuo Fuchida and Masatake Okumiya (I only read about 5 pages a week right at the moment)
