Continuing our chat, Gordon argues that had Stalingrad gone the other way, we'd be looking at a completely different Europe. He sets the scene and describes relations between Germany and Russia before and at the start of WW2 and then discusses the battle itself.
We also briefly mention Ukraine so I hope you can indulge us.
