This book by a renowned British military historian, based on numerous interviews with surviving Wehrmacht veterans who participated in the invasion of the USSR, clearly demonstrates that Operation Barbarossa was not the triumphant march portrayed in Western literature. The story of the Blitzkrieg and its collapse is told through the eyes of ordinary soldiers and officers who experienced firsthand the reality of war with Russia and watched in horror as their march for victory wreaths turned into a march for birch crosses (before the Battle of Moscow, the Germans had already lost 30 divisions, or approximately half a million men).

The author thoroughly analyzes the common myth about the Wehrmacht's innocence in the genocide of the Soviet people, frankly recounting the crimes of the German army against prisoners of war and civilians, atrocities that the Germans themselves still attribute exclusively to the SS.
