Stalin's War: Volume One: The World in Flames Trilogy - Paperback

by Jack Strain (Author)

Stalin's War is the first installment of the World in Flames Trilogy and tells the realistic story of a powerful and compelling series of events that could have led the two most powerful nations in world history to come to blows in war-torn Europe. This alternative history tells the story of the great leaders of the day, Churchill, FDR, Stalin, Truman, Eisenhower, Zhukov, and numerous other historical figures, as well as, a cast of characters from courageous Polish Freedom Fighters engaged in a near hopeless bid for survival to former Nazi SS officers desperate and willing to do anything to ignite a conflict between the two emerging superpowers to save the Fatherland. But at the heart of this story lies one man's obsessions, paranoia, and desire to dominate the globe...Josef Stalin. His is the most powerful man on the planet with the largest army in the history of man and sees treachery everywhere. And yet, he misses the one true threat to all of his plans and in one moment of pure terror everything he had long planned nearly comes to an end, leading him to make a momentous decision to crush the Motherland's enemies without mercy once and for all. This fast paced thriller takes readers from the rubble of Berlin to politics in the White House and Kremlin, and ultimately to fields of battle as two great armies move towards an inevitable clash of arms that will determine not only the fate of Europe, but perhaps freedom itself.
