Hi guys,

just went through the collection of books in various sections, and all i can say is that apart from the contemporary collection, the collection of books from the "Good ol days" is the best i have come across so far. The collection stirs up emotions inside that take a book lover or a random reader like myself on a very sweet, Nostalgic magic carpet ride. I have not been able to spend too much time on the site, just a mere glance but I'm sold and convinced that you guys got a regular customer in me. Thanks a lot for this MUCH needed dose of nostalgia, and the best part being the convenience...cheers to that and i hope to see the collection increase.

About Book

The thrilling history of the turning point of the Second World War, when Hitler's armies were halted on the Eastern Front At the moment of crisis in 1941 on the Eastern front, with the forces of Hitler massing on the outskirts of Moscow, the miraculous occurred: Moscow was saved. Yet this turning point was followed by a long retreat, in which Russian forces, inspired by old beliefs in the sacred motherland, pushed back German forces steeled by the vision of the ubermensch, the iron-willed fighter. Many of Russia's 27 million military and civilian deaths occurred in this desperate struggle. In THE RETREAT, Michael Jones, acclaimed author of LENINGRAD, draws upon a mass of new eye-witness testimony from both sides of the conflict to tell, with matchless vividness and comprehensiveness, of the crucial turning point of the Second World War - the moment when the armies of Hitler could go no further - and of the titanic and cruel struggle of two mighty empires.
