Though the siege lasted just under 900 days, to the citizens of the Soviet Union (and Russia today), this event is referred to as the \"900-Day Siege.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn those 900 Days, the losses sustained by the Soviet Union were greater than the losses of Great Britain (est. 450,000) and the United States (est. 415,000) combined for the entire duration of the war. The losses in Leningrad (both civilian and military) amounted to over one million deaths, according to American military historian David Glantz. Other estimates reach the same general conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese one million victims of the Nazi siege did not only fall to Nazi bullets, bombs, and shells. The men, women, and children of Leningrad died in a variety of other ways as well, most of them exceedingly unpleasant, such as disease, starvation, and suicide. And, despite the propaganda from both sides, Russians are just as susceptible to cold weather as anyone else, especially when fuel runs out and there is not enough adequate clothing to go around.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Siege of Leningrad: A Captivating Guide to the Siege of Leningrad and Its Impact on World War 2 and the Soviet Union\u003c\/em\u003e, you will discover topics such as\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBefore the Siege\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorror Approaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorror Approaches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCivilians and Defense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Battlefield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside the City\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInside the City\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStalin Returns to His Old Methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo if you want to learn more about the Siege of Leningrad, scroll up and click the \"add to cart\" button!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.17 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 05, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44246697017395,"sku":"9781647488512","price":45.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/2191\/6467\/files\/TlVYsJSOhV9781647488512.webp?v=1777677375","url":"https:\/\/thereadinghousebookcompany.com\/products\/leningrad-a-captivating-guide-to-the-siege-of-leningrad-and-its-impact-on-world-war-2-and-the-soviet-union-paperback","provider":"The Reading House Book Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
