This is an incredible book. One that surprised and taught me new things despite having read well over 100 books on the Second World War. Hastings explores topics in some depth that are only briefly touched upon by other authors. These topics include: the Red Army's ferocious pillaging of East Prussia, the motivations and will to fight of the respective combatants, the Western reliance on artillery, and the fact that it is but a small minority of soldiers that do the real offensive fighting.
Wonderfully written and presented. Highly recommended.
