Sumario:"Nowhere has the role of the partisan been more telling or less understood than during the Soviet Union's Great Patriotic War (1941-45) against Nazi Germany. Leonid Grenkevich's book lifts the veil on the shadowy partisan struggle that accompanied the most brutal conflict in the modern era." "Exploiting formerly classified data, the author synthesises new material with existing Western and Soviet open-source literature to paint a vivid mosaic of the greatest partisan struggle in human history: a struggle that helped confound the twentieth century's most vaunted military machine, the German Wehrmacht. In so doing, Grenkevich has provided the essential base for an understanding of the 'People's War' and the curse, or panacea, of partisan/guerrilla war in general."--Jacket
