HITLER'S WAR ON RUSSIA (AKA HITLER MOVES EAST)
Paul Carell, C,

This special limited edition of an all time classic on the war on the Eastern Front is based off the original British first edition. The dust jacket, photos and fold out map are reproduced exactly here as the original. The only small changes are upgrades on the binding, paper and overall production in which no expense was spared. Launched with an immense invasion force of three million men, Germany's surprise attack against Russia in 1941 was planned by Hitler to crush the Soviets within eight weeks. Instead, hampered by major strategic errors, fanatical Soviet resistance, and the severity of Russian winters, "Operation Barbarossa" lingered on until, in 1943, The German fighting machine finally broke down at Stalingrad in one of the most shattering defeats of the century. Rarely has this war of attrition be reconstructed in such authentic detail and with such starkly dramatic effects as it is in this account. Paul Carell, basing his story on official military records, the memoirs of commanders in both German and Russian armies, and extensive conversations with survivors of all ranks, has drawn an objective, extraordinary vivid pictures of a struggle which, in the size of the forces involved and the ferocity of the fighting, was unparalleled in the history of the war. Along "the greatest front in world history" three armoured spearheads advanced simultaneously in a Blitzkrieg aimed at the vital centers of Russia. Their superior direction of operations, the daring mobility of the Panzer Corps, and the toughness of the troops swept the Germans to within 60 miles of Moscow. But in 1942, while his generals were urging a direct attack upon the capital, Hitler ordered them to concentrate upon a drive south into the Ukraine and towards the oil of the Caucasus. The Germans rapidly penetrated as far as Stalingrad on the River Volga, and Hitler became obsessed with the necessity of capturing the city. By September his troops were fighting in its streets. But the Russians resisted heroically, and after breaking out from the city, encircled and captured a number of German divisions and high-ranking officers. It was this sudden collapse at Stalingrad which turned the tide of the war in Russia. Paul Carell demonstrates clearly in this definitive account the strategic issues of the Campaign, its origins and significance, Hitler's tactical blunders and his generals' achievements in spite of them. Includes stunning color and black and white photographs, that have easily stood the test of time in their dramatic appeal.

397. T-34 MYTHICAL WEAPON
Robert Michulec, Mroslaw Zientarzewski, C,O, English text, out of print

When this book was announced 3 years ago it had 300 pages. Over those 3 years the publication expended to 520 pages . Unfortunately prices for printing and shipping also increased over those years, which affected the price of the book as well. This massive book has 880 b/w photographs, 58 pages of 1/35 scale drawings of all versions of the tank, 20 pages in color, 36 color interior photos, color 3D drawings and detailed photos of all components of the tank. This is by far the definitive study ever published on the T-34, really a must for any armor fan.

Company Profile

 

Since you popped onto this page, I guess you may be a bit curious to find out who the bozo is that is running this show. I started 16 years ago issuing my first crudely made catalog that was sent out in the mail. Then 14 years ago after working the trade to fatten other people's wallets, I opened my own bookshop. Not only do I have the new books you see here, but a general used bookstore of around 30,000 hardcover books with a specialty in history. Then about 11 years ago I started my first website with Stone and Stone, and since then things have really been on the upswing, and no longer was the daily lunch at Taco Bell of one tostada a necessity. (It isn't easy starting your own bookstore, romantic as it sounds working around old and rare books, you live on a starvation diet at first, and if lucky and you know what you are doing, gradually things improve)  What does this mean to you? Well I still personally handle every order you place from start to finish as well as answer any questions. I am still the customer service department, the  order department and the shipping department, I do it all baby. I package books with great care so no matter where you live, the books should arrive safely. In all these years of mail order, only a handful of times has a book arrived damaged. I  also realized my next goal of publishing and my first two books, reprints of the two most rare German WWII memoirs, Doctor At Stalingrad and Daedalus Returned have been published in 1000 copy editions. It has been a lot of work, and often it nearly overwhelms me, but I refuse to take on help and trust your order or concerns with somebody else, I am a bit paranoid that way you see, and if it comes from Aberdeen, then it has to meet my highest standards. I am a book reader and collector myself, I provide what I would expect to receive.  Another tremendous benefit for me is meeting all sorts of nice people from around the globe. This winter I also added the Snow Beast, so when those in Australia are sitting back at the barby, not understanding the blizzards going on here, they can still call and I'll be at work.
