On June 22, 1941, Adolf Hitler invaded Josef Stalin's Soviet Union with a 3 million man army. Klaus Mohrhardt served in that army from the onset of the invasion until he was wounded in the first large Soviet counteroffensive that drove the German army back from the outskirts of Moscow. Klaus wrote numerous very descriptive letters home describing the attack, the counteroffensive, and the mounting problems encountered by the Germans. Author/editor Ronald Rockwell parallels Klaus's letters with an in depth historical perspective of Hitler's largest WWII offensive and includes the German rationale for the attack, command decisions during the offensive, logistical problemsincluding terrain, road conditions and weather.
