SCORCHED EARTH Third Reich Wehrmacht retreat from USSR WW2 Eastern Front Balkans
SCORCHED EARTH
TIME-LIFE BOOKS
1991
The Wehrmacht's retreat from the Soviet Union in 1943. Only after his forces suffered a series of debilitating losses beginning in the spring of that year did Hitler agree to give up ground he had wrested from the Soviets. As it withdrew west, the spent German army implemented the Fuhrer's "scorched earth" directive, which read: "All territory which the troops are forced to yield to the enemy must be made useless to him. Every village must be burnt down and destroyed."
Part of the Time-Life The Third Reich series.

Shipping
All books sent appropriately packaged.
I work hard to keep the cost of shipping to a minimum whilst maintaining a high standard and do not profit from the shipping cost. Tracking is optional to help keep costs down.
I am happy to combine shipping, the exact discount depends on the total weight, for large orders (over 2 kg), the savings can be substantial if a courier is used.
Canadian & Cambodian buyers please note your countries have a 2kg limit on air mail, so a different courier must be used, please wait for an invoice.
UK buyers due to Royal Mail's price structure it is sometimes cheaper to split orders over 2kg into 2 separate packages and occasionally these may arrive on different days even though posted at the same time.
If you have any other requirements please ask I will be happy to help.
