About the book
Drawing on original Russian and German source material, the book covers the opening phase of the siege of Leningrad, including the Soviet offensives that began in January 1942 to try to break the German lines, and the construction of the "road of life" across frozen Lake Ladoga that helped sustain the city through the siege's winters.
