(Subject: History & Development of Warfare - General) Once called the Red Army, the Soviet Army has its roots in the old Imperial Tsarist Army. In the thirties it modelled itself, as far as its political and social composition allowed, on the German Army of the period. During the Second World War they turned the lessons learned from the German tank philosophers to their advantage, lessons that left a lasting impression on Soviet High Command. The authors give a precise and detailed account of the development of the Ground Forces, their political and military organisation, their training, tactics and weaponry.

Colonel Seaton is recognized as one of the Worlds foremost authorities on Russian and German political and military history. This work cuts through all the miasma of myth and controversy surrounding the Red Army. We come to see how a synthesis of Tsarist tradition, German example, and revolutionary pressure combined to mold the army in the years following the Bolshevik takeover, and how such conflicting figures as Trotsky and Stalin put their personal stamps on the new force. ; ; 8vo - over… Leer más
