Blood on the Snow: The Carpathian Winter War of 1915 (Modern War Studies)
"With bold, powerful brush strokes, Tunstall paints a picture of horrendous death in the Carpathian Mountains. Austria-Hungary and Russia each lost about one million men, making the battle more costly than the better known ones of Verdun and the Somme 1916. Meticulously researched and well written, this is military history at its finest. A must read." Holger H. Herwig, author of The Marne, 1914 "Snow falls on the mountains, wolves howl in the distance, and two doomed armies learn the truth of the old adage, 'there is no enemy more formidable than nature'. An essential book for all World War I libraries." Robert M. Citino, author of The German Way of War"
