Book Reviews of Sevastopol 1942: Von Manstein's triumph (Campaign)
Book Review: Concentrated information, but not really informative
Summary: 3 Stars
This is an expensive book (listing for $19.95), but it is a thin paperback (96 pages), with lots of photographs. I found myself wishing for more words, descriptions, analysis, stories.
The book itself is chock full of facts, but there is little human interest, and the facts are rarely expounded on. If you are looking for an quick and dirty history of the campaign, then this is the book for you. I kept wishing that the author had expanded on some of the snippets that he refers to, they are tantalizing.
The author put as much information into limited space as he could, but it reads more like a book report than a book.
