New book on siege of Leningrad

mike jones · 22-05-2008, 09:38 AM

I have a new book out, Leningrad - State of Siege, which takes a fresh look at the horrific 900-day siege and - using diaries, letters and interviews with survivors - tries to understand how the city managed to hold out in such terrible conditions.

And - remembering the thread on Lake Ladoga - there is a chapter on the Ice Road

It is available at discount on Amazon.co.uk: low prices in Electronics, Books, Music, DVDs & more - and will be out in the US at the end of June.

With best wishes to everyone on the forum, Mike.

Looks a good read with a positive review, Mike. I'm sure there's more than one fellow on here who would enjoy it. Thanks for the heads up.
