An excellent overview of the Eastern Front

This book is a great overview of the Eastern Front campaign. With Erickson's insights there is plenty of balance in the book regarding German vs Russian bias. My only real complaint is that the later Russian offensives are given less coverage compared to the intial German attacks. Overall though if you are new to the Eastern Front or just want a quick overview as a refresher or just a good read you can't go wrong with this book.While I have not seen the video series of the same name this book seems to be a companion to it with lots of quotes from the videos.
