Samenvatting	Hermann Hoth led Germany's 3rd Panzer Group in Army Group Center-in tandem with Guderian's 2nd Group-during the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. Together those two daring panzer commanders achieved a series of astounding victories, encircling entire Russian armies at Minsk, Smolensk, and Vyazma, all the way up to the very gates of Moscow.

His firsthand analysis is vital reading for every student of World War II.
