About the book
"The Red Army's Belorussian operation in the summer of 1944 was unprecedented in terms of its scale, scope, and strategic consequences. For the first time in the war, the Soviet Stavka (High Command) planned for a summer campaign consisting of a series of massive and consecutive strategic operations spanning the entire Soviet-German front. The aim was to initiate the summer campaign against its old nemesis, German Army Group Center, which was defending in Belorussia, and then extend the campaign with ambitious offensives against virtually every German army group on the front." "The Soviets conducted the Belorussian operation with four powerful fronts (army groups) operating under close Stavka control. Over 1.8 million troops, 1.2 million of them in combat formations, sought to accomplish a feat of arms no previous Red Army force had achieved: the defeat and dismemberment of an entire German army group. This book details how that feat was accomplished in the words of the individuals who planned and orchestrated the operation."--BOOK JACKET.
