Yet this turning point was followed by a long retreat, in which Russian forces, inspired by old beliefs in the sacred motherland, pushed back German forces steeled by the vision of the ubermensch, the iron-willed fighter. Many of Russia's 27 million military and civilian deaths occurred in this desperate struggle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn THE RETREAT, Michael Jones, acclaimed author of LENINGRAD, draws upon a mass of new eye-witness testimony from both sides of the conflict to tell, with matchless vividness and comprehensiveness, of the crucial turning point of the Second World War - the moment when the armies of Hitler could go no further - and of the titanic and cruel struggle of two mighty empires.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hodder \u0026#x00026; Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47179653906672,"sku":"9781848543546","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781848543546_p0.jpg?v=1763750852","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781848543546","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
