Sommario/riassunto |
|
This work is an in-depth historical analysis of Field Marshal Erich von Manstein's winter campaign on the Russian southern front during the 1942-43 conflict. It covers four main phases of the campaign: the attempted relief of the 6th Army at Stalingrad, the protection of Army Group A's withdrawal from the Caucasus, the maintenance of German lines of communication, and a counteroffensive to regain strategic initiative. The analysis highlights Manstein's operational genius, exploring his strategic maneuvers and the challenges posed by numerical inferiority and political constraints. The study also examines the implications of these tactics for contemporary NATO strategies, focusing on operational depth and agility. The book is aimed at military historians and strategists interested in the operational level of war and its lessons for modern warfare. |
