520    In November 1942 – in a devastating counter-attack 
       from outside the city – Soviet forces smashed the 
       German siege and encircled Stalingrad, trapping some 290,
       000 soldiers of the 6th Army inside. For almost three 
       months, during the harshest part of the Russian winter, 
       the German troops endured atrocious conditions. Freezing 
       cold and reliant on dwindling food supplies from Luftwaffe
       air drops, thousands died from starvation, frostbite or 
       infection if not from the fighting itself. 
&
       #8232;This important work reconstructs the grim fate of 
       the 6th Army in full for the first time by examining the 
       little-known story of the field hospitals and central 
       dressing stations. The author has trawled through hundreds
       of previously unpublished reports, interviews, diaries and
       newspaper accounts to reveal the experiences of soldiers 
       of all ranks, from simple soldiers to generals. 
&
       #8232;The book includes first-hand accounts of soldiers 
       who were wounded or fell ill and were flown out of the 
       encirclement; as well as those who fought to the bitter 
       end and were taken prisoner by the Soviets. They reflect 
       on the severity of the fighting, and reveal the slowly 
       ebbing hopes for survival. Together they provide an 
       illuminating and tragic portrait of the appalling events 
       at Stalingrad. [Elib]
