Barbarossa Campaign in 1941 - Hungarian Perspective

The Barbarossa campaign started on 22 June 1941, pitting the forces of the Soviet Union against those of the Third Reich and its allies. Hungary was among the less willing allies who participated on the side of the Germans. The Hungarian involvement during the first phase of the war against the Soviet Union was minimal. On the other hand, the Hungarian committed their most modern, partially motorized units - the Mobile Corps and the elite mountain jagers and border guard troops of the VIII Corps and the selected units of the Royal Hungarian Air Force.

This lavishly illustrated book will show what war meant for ordinary soldiers and civilians from the Hungarian perspective in 1941.
