In the hell that was World War II, the Eastern Front was its heart of fire and ice and the author served in that lethal theatre from 1941 to 1945. This memoir vividly recaptures his gruelling experiences with an army marching on the road to ruin, and conveys the brutality and horror of the front. Wounded five times and awarded numerous decorations for valour, he saw action in the Crimea and the siege of Sebastopol, in the forests south of Leningrad, and ended the war trapped in the Kurland Pocket. He relives the humiliation of surrender and offers a sobering glimpse into life in the Soviet Gulags
