November 1942 The Eastern Front
The trilogy of three books set in the final months of the most vicious battle in history.
Leutnant Hausser, a young experienced German infantry officer with the 76th Infantry Division is assigned with a handful of men to the south of Stalingrad. As the fighting heightens in the city, the officer and his men bolster the defences of their allies, the Romanians, on a relatively quiet part of the front.
As the Germans strip their flanks and move units into the city in a desperate attempt to clinch victory, the Russian Red Army prepares a massive offensive designed to trap their enemy in Stalingrad.
As the Russian offensive is launched, smashing through the flanks to the north and south of the freezing city, small units of survivors desperately try and escape the Russian onslaught. Not many will make it.
The battle for the city will continue in the bitterest conditions, the trapped Axis forces struggling against cold, hunger and a vengeful enemy, hell-bent on their destruction.
The German air force, the Luftwaffe, attempt to supply the city from the air. Failing to consider the distance, miserable conditions and roaming Russian fighters and anti-aircraft fire.
Erich Von Manstein, the German Field Marshall is ordered to break through to the frozen city on the banks of the Volga River, the relief effort (Operation Winter Storm) struggling against Russian forces deployed between them and their goal.
Leutnant Hausser and his small squad continue their battle for survival, the rations and ammunition cut, the weather unbearably miserable, their enemy becoming increasingly more powerful and a hunger gnawing at their stomachs.
Russian food kitchens are moved near the front lines, ensuring their starving enemy can smell the hot meals provided for their soldiers. The Germans and their allies are down to 1000 calories a day, the city rationing providing limited bread, soup and horse flesh.
Loudspeakers deployed across the front sound a clock ticking, a voice announcing that ‘Every seven seconds a German soldier dies in Russia.’ The loudspeakers play twenty four hours a day.
Having spent thirty years studying World War 2 and in particular, the Russian Front, these offerings are based on historical fact. The characters are fictitious, attempting to portray a realistic account of what the battle would have been like for individual soldiers.
All units and actions are in accordance with actual events, including propaganda, deployment and individual division engagements. Snipers, aircraft, artillery and tank actions are all included.
Bloody Stalingrad is the trilogy of Bloody Iced Bullet, Bloody Rattenkrieg and Bloody Kessel.
The author aims to provide a thoroughly enjoyable and imaginative reading experience at an affordable price for the reader. All three works from the author's World War 2 Series concentrating on Stalingrad have achieved Best Seller status on in the UK and many more stories are outlined.
Imagination is personal, free and to be cherished.

This is an excellent story and the author did a wonderful job on historic details of the battle and even the minor details of the soldier. The battle scenes are excellent, some of the best I have ever read and, frankly, it is doubtful much could be improved on them. I do think he could improve on interaction between the characters because sometimes just didn't feel right, hard to put into words... But the book in its entirety is excellent and easily recommended. I also like how the author did not rush the story and how each day became more and more difficult to find food...hell on earth.Product details

Bloody Stalingrad The Trilogy Bloodied Wehrmacht Series Book 1 edition by Andrew McGregor Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
It was difficult for me to put this book down as reading usually helps me to sleep. Not so with this book. I now look forward to author's other books. The only difficulty I encountered was deciphering some of the German language used. An appendix listing equipment, weapons, and other reference hardware would also have been useful.
Good story but needs editing, words misspelled, etc
This is the third book I have read about this battle and it is as good as the other two. The others being the more celebrated of them. One having been made into a movie. This book is a much more graphic depiction of the appalling conditions Hitler made his army suffer. Plus this book wasn't centered on any snipers.
An excellent historical novel that does not hold back any of the horror of war. A well written, gritty, realistic novel of the horrific conditions of the battle of Stalingrad from the German point of view.
Like I said before. Love this authors work on the same people. Lots of detailed action!
Gritty and determined. An excellent story of a squad of German and allied soldiers fighting j n Stalingrad. Not much fiction is written about this brutal and tragic episode of the war. McGregor does a wonderful job of introducing the historic context and presenting these intriguing characters. I look forward to reading more about this squad.
This is an excellent story and the author did a wonderful job on historic details of the battle and even the minor details of the soldier.
