About this product
Product Information
This volume contains an unprecedented level of detail about the Red Army's preparation for and conduct of the famous Battle of Kursk. Prepared by the Red Army General staff in 1944 from combat reports and other top-secret archive materials, the work is an eminently practical and candid document, which was written to educate the Red Army in the intricacies, demands and pitfalls of modern warfare. As a treasure trove of fresh material, this book addresses aspects of the battle that have puzzled commentators since 1943. It provides new information on subjects ranging from overall Soviet strategic intent and military planning, engineer preparation of the battlefield, and the oft-neglected question of logistical support. Juxtaposed with the vivid details of the struggle leading up to the combat crescendo at Ponyri and Prokhorovka are such unusual matters as the employment of remote-controlled mines, electrified barbed wire and ant-tank dogs. The Battle for Kursk 1943 opens up new horizons on the operations of the Red Army at Kursk, the nature of the war on the German Eastern Front, and, in general terms, the new range of horrors that have characterised warfare in the twentieth century.

Stone & Stone: Second World War Book Book Review- " provides a deeply detailed analysis of the Battle of Kursk...the book is clearly devoted to investigating a variety of technical topics which would be of most interest to the generals responsible for planning and fighting similar battles." The Journal of Military History, Vol 64, No 2, April 2000 "This contemporary wartime Soviet General Staff study supplies a wealth of detail which gives it immediate, present-day relevance ... In the vast and varies historiography of the battle of Kursk this Soviet General Staff survey occupies a unique place, much of its material either surprisingly fresh or directly pertinent to clarifying aspects and incidents long obscured." Choice "Those interested in a staff appreciation of the Soviet side of the battle of Kursk will find both strategic and tactical grist here." ARMOR: " a reader can profit from examining this study as a good example of a thorough report and a staff producing optimal work even while operating under the stress of war".
