Covers the period from the initial difficulties of the Civil War to the impact of the first catastrophes suffered by the Red Army following the German attack in 1941... Makes considerable use of unpublished documents contained in the captured German archives, and materials emanating from the Japanese military command, at one time itself a formidable foe of the Red Army." - from dust jacket.
