Lecture No. 48. War diary of Franz Halder 1941–1942. In the 48th lesson of the "Book Club" of the School of Geopolitics, we analyze the "War Diary. 1941-1942" by the Chief of the General Staff of the Nazi German Army Franz Halder, which is considered the most detailed and complete source on the actions of the Wehrmacht on the territory of the First Patriotic War of the Soviet Union. The Chinese strategist Sun Tzu in his work "The Art of War" talks about the importance of knowing your enemy. In the pages of the "War Diary" we learn about the situation in the Nazi General Staff on the eve of the treacherous attack on the Soviet Union. What kind of game were the British playing, pushing Hitler into a mad attack on the Soviet Union? Open the new Geopolitics Schools app by clicking the button below.
