{"product_id":"barbarossa-peter-darman-9781781212714","title":"Barbarossa","description":"On 22 June 1941, Adolf Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union. Over 3,000,000 men, more than 3,000 tanks, and over 2,000 aircraft advanced east to begin the Nazi Party's crusade to destroy Bolshevism and carve out \"living space\" for the Thousand Year Reich. During the first few weeks of the invasion, the Germans achieved staggering results, as whole Soviet armies were annihilated, thousands of aircraft were destroyed on the ground, and hundreds of thousands of enemy soldiers were captured. Yet as the Wehrmacht advanced deeper into Mother Russia, the tables began to turn. Barbarossa describes the experience of war on the Eastern Front: the choking dust and endless steppes of the Ukraine, the mud that made movement by wheeled and tracked vehicles all but impossible, and the numbing Russian winter, which killed thousands of ill-equipped German soldiers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Darman, Christopher Ailsby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1781212716\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781781212714\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brown Bear Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.52d","brand":"Peter Darman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125358227711,"sku":"9781781212714","price":12.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebf9144c-d0fc-4d21-a7a2-25184fa53a8c.jpg?v=1687442159","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/barbarossa-peter-darman-9781781212714","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
