New York 1993, Grove Pr, 1st US edition w/dj, 6x9, Fine/Fine condition, xix, 394 pages, illus, maps, bibliog, index. Like Adolph Hitler in Germany, Stalin exerted a powerful influence over his country's military. But while the personalities, influences, and legacies of Rommel, Keitel, and the other Third Reich generals have been amply documented, the Soviet Union's military leaders who served under Stalin have been shrouded from the public eye.In Stalin's General's Harold Shukman has assembled an international group of distinguished scholars and historians, including John Erickson and Dmitri Volkogonov, to examine twenty-six Soviet military commanders whose strategies defeated Nazi Germany's potent fighting machine despite both the continual threat of purge and Stalin's often disastrous interventions. Stalin's reign of terror had a destructive impact on every level of Soviet society, but probably nowhere more so than within the ranks of the Red Army. His bloody purge of the officer class in the 1930s devastated Soviet forces and left them ill-equipped to confront Hitler's invading army. And yet-in the paradoxical role of helping defeat one despotic ruler while saving another-the maimed Red Army withstood the fuhrer's onslaught and achieved one of the most remarkable victories in modern military history.Included are illuminating portraits of Tukhachevsky, the brilliant innovator who fell prey to the purges; Yoroshilov, the incompetent Stalin flunkie; Zhukov, the mercurial but distinguished leader who saved Moscow and captured Berlin; Shaposhnikov, the czarist officer who assumed command of the Red Army at the height of the Wehrmacht offensive; Rokossovsky, imprisoned during Stalin's purges and later a pivotal figure in the Soviet victory; Ylasov, a major force in the creation of the anti-Stalinist Russian Liberation Movement; and Golikov, the coward and dilettante about whose personal life so little is known.Complete with the latest information gleaned from the newly opened archives, this authoritative study casts an all-important light on a heretofore unknown group of men who helped create the modern Soviet military, one of the defining elements of the cold war Soviet state., 0<
