Anastasia Goodman discusses the Battle of Stalingrad through readings from her Sasha Perlov mystery series (“Loose Ends” & “Death and Diamonds”) with a discussion of hte actual epic battle.

“It was one of the most significant battles of the 20th century. Historians consider it the turning point in WW II. Sasha, a Russion-born police detective, speaks to survivors of the battle in the mystery series (anastasiagoodman.weebly.com). His grandfather was the Hero of the Battle of Stalingrad. Learn about this monumental military event through literature and a discussion that describes how the two great powers — Nazi Germany and the Russian Red Army — face off in the midst of frightened civilians caught in the cross fire.”
