Hardcover. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. xi, [3], 304, [2] pages. Maps. Footnotes. Index. The dust jacket has some wear, tears, chips and soiling. Blacked out areas on verso related to publication information. Discusses the Battles of Moscow, Stalingrad, and Kursk during World War II. Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov (1…December [O.S. 19 November] 1896 18 June 1974) was a Soviet military leader who served as a top commander during World War II and achieved the rank of Marshal of the Soviet Union. During World War II, Zhukov served as deputy commander-in-chief of the armed forces under leader Joseph Stalin, and oversaw some of the Red Army's most decisive victories. He also served at various points as Chief of the General Staff, Minister of Defence, and a member of the Presidium of the Communist Party. Zhukov is remembered as one of the greatest Russian and Soviet military leaders of all time, along with Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Barclay de Tolly, and Mikhail Kutuzov. Considered by some to be the greatest general of World War II, General Georgi Zhukov served as the Chief of Staff of the Soviet High Command, leading Soviet troops against Germans in key battles of the war. In his account of four major campaigns in the warthe defense of Moscow, Stalingrad, and Kursk, and the advance on BerlinZhukov describes his experiences preparing for German attacks, organizing counter-strikes, assessing the enemy, and issuing the orders that pushed the front west, towards Germany's capital. Zhukov also tells of his extensive arguments with Stalin during the war, and the political alliances and rivalries among the U. S. S. R.'s generals throughout the conflict. Derived from a Kirkus review: The greatest Strategist of World War II, Harrison Salisbury argues in his introduction here, was Marshal Georgei Zhukov, "master of disaster," who organized and directed up to twenty armies at once in the back-to-the-wall struggles of the Soviet theater. Zhukov, also the outstanding military man in postwar Russian politics, now tells of his four greatest battles: Moscow, the first major defeat inflicted on the invaders; Stalingrad, epic blow to Nazi strength; Kursk-Orel, the turning point, an immensely important engagement almost unknown in the West; Berlin, political prize won by Stalin's favorites, who raced each other to take the city first. The narrative, focusing on planning and execution, clearly establishes Zhukov's tactical genius. He was regarded as one of the most ruthless of the war leaders. Interest centers on the politics of command: on Stalin, to whose whims and prejudices the generals had to cater; and on Zhukov's biting critique of lesser military figures. For years after his last fall from grace an "unperson," his name deleted from rivals' war accounts, Zhukov now returns the compliment in subtler fashion. His precise targets are identified in Salisbury's invaluable notes. Historians and military specialists will agree that these reminiscences make a substantial contribution to the military-political history of World War II. First U. K. Edition. Presumed first printing thus. Jean Paul Tremblay (Maps) (illustrateur).

Connoisseurs of American intellectual culture will take note of the name Grace Norton, recognizing her as the sister of the great 19th century Harvard philologist & professor of Romance languages, Charles Elliot Norton, who as the Cambridge heir of H.W. Longfellow was the translator of the first truly modern, truly accurate English-language Dante (c. 1891) among many other achievements for which he is still honored w/ a prestigious professorship & annual lecture in his name. His sister Grace had many achievements to her credit as well in scholarship & in translation & in her central role in fostering this edition of Montaigne from conception to publication in close collaboration w/ the scandalous scion of the Salem Pickerings, G.B. Ives. * ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR: George Burnham Ives (1856-1930) graduated summa cum laude from Harvard Law School & became the Assistant District Attorney of Essex County (MA). On May 12, 1890, Ives pleaded guilty to charges of embezzlement & forgery, having been caught misappropriating tens of thousands of dollars from various trust funds as well as squandering his wife's inheritance. He was sentenced to 8 1/2 years in Charlestown Prison & was disbarred. While in prison, Ives developed a second career as a translator. After his release, he became a distinguished & prolific literary translator, translating works by Balzac, Daudet, Gautier, Hugo, Maupassant, Mérimée, Sand & Montaigne into English. In later life, Ives produced the first comprehensive bibliography of the works of Oliver Wendell Holmes & worked as an editor at The Atlantic Monthly. * ABOUT THE COMMENTATOR: Grace Norton (b. 1834, d. May 5, 1926) was a noted scholar & lecturer. Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts to Andrew Norton & Catherine Eliot Norton, she was the sister of Charles Eliot Norton. She was educated in Cambridge & read extensively about the literature of France. Norton began studying French authors, chief among them Michel de Montaigne. An expert on Montaigne & the works of other authors, Norton traveled, lectured & wrote about them, her articles appearing in many publications. * SHIPPING: Mnemosyne carefully wraps, labels & packages this splendid set w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the United States & its territories.
