Andreas Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Stalingrad Net says he took over on Sept. 12th, after Yeremenko dismissed Gen. Lopatin, who had built up 62nd Army, for withdrawing against orders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Marchand Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 What about this one: The Atlas of Eastern Front Battles by Will Fowler http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/features/library/il-2/easternfront/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 I'm not sure what level of detail you are looking for, but I've found "The Times Atlas of the Second World War" edited by John Keegan to be very useful. It covers all of WWII, not just the eastern front. Most of the maps are larger in scale showing corps, army, and army group level stuff. But, some of the more detailed maps of Stalingrad and Berlin are very good. They aren't topographical maps but they still give a good idea of what was going on. I've often referred to these maps when reading other texts that don't include many maps. The text that accompanies the maps is usually fairly brief. It does, however, give a good overview of the operations depicted on the maps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubique Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 I have a book on order which I got on Ebay, called From Stalingrad to Berlin which is one of the US Army Historical section books published in the 50s/60s. I have a few of them for the ETO and MTO and they usually have good maps - will let you all know what this is like when it arrives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
