Blood Red Snow: The Memoirs of a German Soldier on the Eastern Front

Rating:
Summary: An excellent memoir
Review: I have read many memoirs from soldiers during the war. I enjoyed "Blood Red Snow" a great deal. There seemed to be no apologies, no politics. JUST a soldier on the front line and his experiences. There are spelling errors scattered throughout the book, but I disagree with some of the other reviewers that the author should have gotten a ghost writer to help him out. The style flowed, and I found that the book went by rather quickly.

A good read for someone interested in the war.

Summary: Bloody Good Show!
Review: This is a powerful memoir of a German machine gunner involved in close combat on the Eastern Front. Nonstop action, interesting characters and Korschorrek's growth as a soldier makes this a satisfying and edifying read. More suspenseful than Black Edelweiss, more personal than In Deadly Combat, more substantial than The Good Soldier, Korschorrek has written a war memoir every bit as good as Forgotten Soldier.

Summary: Bloody good show!
Review: This is a powerful memoir of a German soldier at the Eastern Front in small unit close combat. The action is nonstop and the soldiers and people Koschorrek meets along the way make it a valuable read. More gripping than Black Edelweiss, more personal than In Deadly Combat, and with more substance than The Good Soldier, this book deserves its place alongside Forgotten Soldier.
