Stalingrado

The most decisive battle of the Second World War was fought in Stalingrad. Its story has been told many times, but never as in this book by Antony Beevor, which has been praised by specialists such as Orlando Figes and Robert Conquest, and which has become an international bestseller. Beevor has carried out meticulous research in Russian and German archives, extracting unknown data from them, and has interviewed survivors from both sides to reconstruct the lived experience of an immense tragedy. This has allowed him to construct a narrative that Dirk Bogarde said was "a magnificent winter tapestry, which reads like a novel, rather than the superb history book it really is" and that has led Vitali Vitaliev to describe it as "an epic drama with the breath of War and Peace." Bestseller by the world specialist in WWII. Translated into more than 30 languages. Author of The Battle of Crete, Berlin, Paris and The Spanish Civil War.
