Description: This might be the biggest single volume book on military history ever published! Due to the tremendous expense of publishing this book, it was done in a small print run. KURSK is the definitive account of the largest tank battle in history. The book is unique in that it draws upon in-depth research in both German and Russian archival records. The book came about from the actual unit records from both sides, as opposed to the sometimes distorted narratives and legends that have grown up over the battle. It then compares and contrasts those records with the stories and interviews collected from veterans. It is an attempt to cover the entire range of fighting, from the strategic decisions, the operational art, to the tactics and the personal stories. It is a detailed description of the battle, a quantitative analysis of the battle and personal description of the battle as seen through the eyes of the participants. The book includes 29 fold-out maps, 94 maps in the text, 41 charts, graphs and diagrams, 166 tables, 194 statistical sheets covering each engagement, 100 separate sidebars of discussion, 66 German and Soviet commander biographies, and four photo sections with 289 photos - drawn from both German and Soviet sources. The Battle of Kursk was the largest armor battle in history. THIS BOOK IS A SPECIAL EDITION AND IS AUTOGRAPHED BY THE AUTHOR. IT IS NO. 31 OUT OF 100.
