German Infantryman vs Russian Infantryman by Robert Forczyk

The Eastern Front of World War I is sometimes overshadowed by the fighting in the West. This study assesses the tactics and combat performance of both sides fighting in clashes at Gumbinnen, Goritten and Mahartse, examining their contrasting fortunes and revealing the evolving nature of infantry warfare on the Eastern Front during World War I.
