Zhukov's Greatest Defeat: The Red Army's Epic Disaster in Operation Mars, 1942 - Modern War Studies
David M. Glantz
One of the least-known stories of World War II, Operation Mars was an epic military disaster. Designed to dislodge the German Army from its position west of Moscow, Mars cost the Soviets an estimated 335,000 dead, missing, and wounded men and over 1,600 tanks. But in Russian history books, it was a battle that never happened-a historical debacle sacrificed to Stalin's postwar censorship.
