Barbarossa - The fighting of Heeresgruppe Nord in the northern Soviet Union from 1941 to 1945

Operation Barbarossa and the war in the Soviet Union constitute the main front of World War II, the one on which the outcome of the war was decided. While accounts of the battles of Moscow, Stalingrad, Kursk and Berlin are countless, a narrative of the events that took place in the northern part of the front, on the road to Leningrad, was lacking. The author covers the entire period, from the German invasion of 1941 to the reduction of the Courland Pocket in 1945.

  • 1941, Barbarossa towards Leningrad
  • 1942, Leningrad will not be taken
  • 1943, Heeresgruppe Nord holds out
  • 1944, the terrible year
  • 1945, annihilation in Courland and East Prussia
