Artículos relacionados a Red Army into the Reich: The 1945 Russian Offensive
Sinopsis
The last year of the war saw Russian offensives that cleared the Germans out of their final strongholds in Finland and the Baltic states, before advancing into Finnmark in Norway and the east European states that bordered Germany: Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary. By spring 1945 the Red Army had reached to Vienna and the Balkans, and had thrust deep into Germany where they met American, French and British troops advancing from the west. The final days of the Third Reich were at hand. Berlin was first surrounded, then attacked and taken. Hitler's suicide and his successors' unconditional surrender ended the war. For writers and historians who concentrate on the Western Allies and the battles in France and the Low Countries, the Eastern Front comes as a shock. The sheer size of both the territories and the forces involved; the savagery of both weather and the fighting; the appalling suffering of the civilian populations of all countries and the wreckage of towns and cities - it's no wonder that words like armageddon are used to describe the annihilation. Red Army into the Reich combines a narrative history, contemporary photographs and maps with images of memorials, battlefield survivors and then & now views. It may come as a surprise to the western reader to see how many memorials there are to Russia's Great Patriotic War and those to the losses suffered by the countries who spent so long under the murderous Nazi regime.

Acerca del autor
Simon Forty was educated in Dorset and the north of England before reading history at London University's School of Slavonic and East European Studies. He has been involved in publishing since the mid-1970s, first as editor and latterly as author. Son of author and RAC Tank Museum curator, George Forty, he has continued in the family tradition writing mainly on historical and military subjects. Amongst other books, he is the author of The German Infantryman on the Eastern Front (with Richard Charlton Taylor, 2023) and Red Army into the Reich (with Nik Cornish, 2021), both published by Casemate, and has co-authored a range of highly illustrated books on the Normandy battlefields, the Atlantic Wall and the liberation of the Low Countries. Nik Cornish is a former head teacher who has been supplying top class Eastern Front photographs since his first visit to the USSR in 1985. His knowledge of Russian sources and the battles of the Eastern Front have seen him produce books for Osprey and Pen & Sword as well as titles on the Russian Revolution.
