Reviews for Death of the Leaping Horseman: The 24th Panzer Division in Stalingrad
Another one for military historians and students - though people who enjoy real-life combat accounts will also lap it up. I can't comment on the historical accuracy, but I can say that this is a thrilling account of one of the main thrusts of the allies into the Russian heartland. Stirring stuff.
