Features: "Barbarossa" details the history of the German invasion of the Soviet Union over weeks. The book begins with a comprehensive review of the German army's defense from the start of the war until its victory in 1941. It then introduces the planning of operations by the German high command and the Soviet army's defensive deployment. Subsequently, it describes the battle situation of the German bombardment and the progress of the three army groups—Southern, Central, and Northern—in the first seven days of the campaign. The concluding section provides a profound analysis of the immense impact of the "Barbarossa" operation, explaining the inevitable reasons for the Nazi Germany's shattered ambitions to destroy the Soviet Red Army and swiftly occupy Moscow.
