NOTES
"First published in Great Britain in 2026"--Title page verso
"Drawing on German, Russian, Italian, Hungarian and Romanian sources, ... follow the Axis war effort from the unfinished business of the previous year's campaigns to the dramatic reversals that concluded 1942. The story opens with the brutal battles for Kharkov and the Crimean peninsula, culminating in the fall of Sevastopol, before shifting to North Africa, where Rommel's triumph at Gazala and the fall of Tobruk seemed to herald a decisive breakthrough"--Flap page 1 of dust jacket
