Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For anyone seeking to understand the experiences of the ordinary German soldier during World War II, Blood Red Snow provides an excellent starting point" - Military Illustrated A horrifying personal story of World War II's most savage front" - Military Book Club (USA) Gunter Koschorrek wrote his illicit diary on any scraps of paper he could lay his hands on, storing them with his mother on infrequent trips home on leave. The diary went missing, and it was not until he was reunited with his daughter in America some forty years later that it came to light and became Blood Red Snow. The author's excitement at the first encounter with the enemy in the Russian Steppe is obvious. Later, the horror and confusion of fighting in the streets of Stalingrad are brought to life by his descriptions of the others in his unit and their differing manners and techniques for dealing with the squalor and death. He is also posted to Romania and Italy, assignments he remembers fondly compared to his time on the Eastern Front. This book stands as a memorial to the huge numbers on both sides who did not survive and is, some six decades later, the fulfilment of a responsibility the author feels to honour the memory of those who perished. AUTHOR: Gunter K. Koschorrek was a machine-gunner on the Eastern Front in the Second World War. He lived in Germany after he retired from his job as managing director of a sales company. 32 b/w illustrations The dramatic memoirs of a machine-gunner on the Eastern Front. Gives a brutal and detailed account of fighting in Stalingrad and the frozen retreat of the German Army.
