Illustrated Throughout, This Is The First Book To Study The Soviet And German Armoured Forces That Fought The Campaign For The Eastern FrontS Vital Oilfields.Although Sixth ArmyS Battle For Stalingrad Dominates Accounts Of The German Summer 1942 Offensive, The Parallel Thrust By Von KleistS Elite First Panzer Army Actually Came Closer To HitlerS Main Strategic Objective Of 1942: The Caucasus Oilfields.In This Book, Military Historian William E. Hiestand Presents An Analysis Of The Armoured Forces That Fought This Campaign. The Germans Struggled With Difficult Terrain, Stiffening Soviet Resistance, And Extraordinarily Long Lines Of Communications, But The Campaign Would See The Panzers Battle Into The Mountains And Towards The Caspian Sea, Marking The WehrmachtS Deepest Thrust Eastward. The Soviet Defenders Had To Make Do With Tank Brigades Of Obsolete T26S And Inferior T70S, With Limited T34S And Kv1S, As Most T34 Production Was Funnelled Towards Stalingrad. However The Western Allies Had Opened The Persian Corridor To The Ussr, And The Caucasus Defenders Made Extensive Use Of LendLease Valentine And M3 Lee Tanks.Illustrated With Rare Photos And Detailed New Profiles Of The Tanks On Both Sides, This Book Explores How Armour Fought The Campaign, Until The Collapse Of German Forces Around Stalingrad Forced Von KleistS Panzers To Retreat, Ending German Hopes Of Securing The Vital Oil.
