Summary

The full story of this epic battle has never been told because it undermines the sanitized Soviet accounts of the war, which portray Stalin as a military genius. In actuality, Stalin's blunders, incompetence, and brutality made it possible for German troops to approach the outskirts of Moscow. But Hitler's blunders such as sending his troops to attack the Soviet Union without winter uniforms and insisting on an immediate German reign of terror would soon loom even larger. In the end, Hitler's mistakes trumped Stalin's mistakes.
