About this audiobook
" Putin is making the same mistakes that doomed Hitler when he invaded the Soviet Union." – Reviewer
A Gripping and Riveting Short History of Operation Barbarossa
In just four weeks in the summer of 1941, the German Wehrmacht wrought unprecedented destruction on four Soviet armies. They conquered central Ukraine, killing or capturing three-quarters of a million men.
This is an informative and insightful military history of the Battles of Kyiv and Leningrad as well as Hitler's march on Moscow. This was one of the largest and most decisive battles of World War II and, for Hitler and Stalin, a battle of crucial importance. Daniel Wrinn charts the battle's dramatic course and aftermath, uncovering the irreplaceable losses suffered by Germany's "panzer groups" despite their battlefield gains, and the implications of these losses for the German war effort.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Just as the war in Ukraine is almost as brutal as it was in WW2, the soil is soak with ancient blood. Just as the Nazis found out, so will the soldiers Putin has sent to die. It’s really sad that Ukraine had rebuilt to become a modern country and once again is fighting for its survival. But, as Ukraine prevailed over the German war machine, so too will they over the tired and outdated Russian military.
