520    On June 22, 1941, Adolf Hitler launched the greatest land 
       assault in history on the Soviet Union, an attack the 
       Führer deemed crucial to ensure Germany's economic and 
       political survival. Operation Barbarossa, as the assault 
       was known, was Hitler's attempt to annihilate the Soviet 
       Union in order to fulfill the Nazi desire for Lebensraum 
       (living space) and to finally resolve the "Jewish 
       question." What resulted was a devastating and barbaric 
       campaign that consumed enormous resources and accounted 
       for 75 percent of all German casualties during World War 
       II. The ruthless conflict also left tens of millions of 
       Eastern Europeans dead or destitute, at rates dramatically
       outnumbering Anglo-American casualties on the western 
       front. Despite the enduring significance of the eastern 
       front, few English-language books have addressed these 
       pivotal events. Ostkrieg: Hitler's War of Extermination in
       the East incorporates recent historical research on the 
       German-Soviet war into an accessible, comprehensive, and 
       insightful narrative. Stephen G. Fritz analyzes the German
       -Soviet war from the German perspective, covering all 
       aspects of the eastern front and exploring the 
       interrelated military events, economic strategy, resource 
       exploitation, and racial policy that motivated the 
       pitiless invasion and war of extermination
