The 900 Days-the Siege of Leningrad

By: Harrison E. Salisbury

For nine hundred days beginning in 1941 - two and a half years without letup - the city of Leningrad suffered siege. During that time as many people died in Leningrad as the entire war losses suffered by the United States in the whole of its history - nearly a million and a half. Harrison E. Salisbury spent 25 years studying diaries, memoirs and archives, corresponding with and interviewing survivors. The result is an anguished and inspiring epic story of human cruelty and courage.
