SS Steel Storm: Waffen-SS Panzer Battles on the Eastern Front, 1943-1945

A detailed account of Waffen-SS battles, from the recapture of Kharkov in early 1943, to the last desperate attempt to hold the Red Army from Berlin in 1945 — a string of battles that are arguably the finest defensive actions of modern warfare. Highlights include: how SS commanders became masters of tank warfare; the use of offensive tactics during defensive battles; the development of German tank and armoured fighting vehicle technology; and the methods that enabled troops to survive ferocious Soviet artillery bombardments. Well done!
