Stalingrad by Jochen Hellbeck
During and right after the battle Soviet historians interviewed key people, and then the interviews were locked up until recent times. The stories are intense. They had battles within a single building that went on lierally for days. The Nazi airstrikes would go on for 8 hours at a time - unending bombers screaming out of the sky dropping bombs. I get the impression of 2 great mechanized peoples colliding.
