Description

The complete and unredacted autobiography by Stalin's star general, chronicling his many campaigns throughout WWII.

At Moscow, Leningrad, Stalingrad, Kursk and Berlin-as well as virtually all the principal battles on the Eastern Front during the Second World War-Georgy Zhukov played a major role. He was Stalin's pre-eminent general throughout the conflict, and he chronicled his brilliant career as he saw it in this essential text.

Here, Zhukov reveals intriguing insights into who he was, both as a man and as a commander. He also delves into the military thinking and decision-making at the highest level of the Soviet command-making this volume essential reading for anyone studying the conflict in the east.

This edition of the memoirs, which were first published in heavily censored form, features an introduction by Professor Geoffrey Roberts in which he summarizes the additional material omitted from previous editions. He also provides, in an appendix, a translation of Zhukov's account of the 1953-7 period as well as an interview with Zhukov that has previously not been available in English.
