Join us to celebrate Professor Wendy Z. Goldman's recent book; "Fortress Dark and Stern: The Soviet Home Front During World War II."
After Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, German troops seized the heartland of Soviet industry and agriculture and turned the occupied territories into killing fields. "Fortress Dark and Stern" chronicles the epic story of resistance on the home front. Focusing on the impact of total war, it examines the efforts of ordinary people, who withstood starvation and horrific conditions, to make the Allied victory possible.
