- Summary:
- Based on in-depth analysis of contemporary war diaries, this book examines Field Marshal Erich von Manstein's conduct of operations as the commander of the German Army Group Don from November 1942-March 1943. The author traces the course of the winter campaign of 1942-43, the aftermath of the Soviet counteroffensive that trapped the German 6th Army in the city of Stalingrad, and illuminates the reasons why the Army Group Don was able to achieve a dramatic reversal of fortune and enable the German Army to regain the initiative along the critical Eastern front.
