Book Description
This extensively researched book illuminates many of the enigmas that have surrounded the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, offering keen insights into Stalin’s thinking and the reasons for his catastrophic blunder.
“If, after the war, the Soviet Union had somehow been capable of producing an official inquiry into the catastrophe of 6/22—comparable in its mandate to the 9/11 commission here—its report might have read a little like [this book]. . . . Murphy brings to his subject both knowledge of Russian history and an insider’s grasp of how intelligence is gathered, analyzed and used—or not.”—Niall Ferguson, New York Times Book Review
"A fascinating and meticulously researched account of mistaken assumptions and errors of judgment that culminated in Hitler’s invasion of Russia in June 1941. Never before has this fateful period been so fully documented."—Henry A. Kissinger

Stalin is never wrong.......2007-09-12
It will come as no surprise to even the casual history buff that Stalin totally misread German intentions about Barbarossa, and the Red Army and Soviet citizens paid in blood for his error. David Murphy assembles overwhelming Soviet documentary evidence of the many sources of intelligence reporting which the Soviet military intelligence and NKVD reported on directly to the Soviet leadership leading up to June 22 1941, warning of impending German hostility. What is new is the evidence of Stalin's systematic elimination of all who had knowledge of the advance warnings he ignored, thus ensuring no one lived to tell of Stalin's fallibility. This is a sobering reminder of the immense evil that Stalin personified.
Very venomous on Stalin. Resembles cold war propaganda.......2007-01-18
Enigma behind Operation Barbarossa[Hitler's invasion of USSR]has always fascinated me.
Despite receiving intelligence warnings from several sources about an impending German assault,war began disastrously for Soviets.This happened because ,prelude to hostilities ,Stalin practised self deception on a extensive scale.Stalin's folly brought the nation on the brink of collapse.Soviet people paid dearly for their leader's mistake.More than 20 million lives were lost before Red Army managed to evict German invaders from the Soviet soil.
There is no doubt in the "war of wits" which preceded German attack,Hitler throughly foxed Stalin.German Fuehrer was able to read Stalin's mind ;latter's predispositon to a particular line of thinking.This was Nazi Germany will not invade USSR as long as Britain continued to hold out behind natural barrier:English Channel. Strange to say,Soviet leader adhered to this thought despite repeated violations of Soviet airspace by the Luftwaffe.Hitler exploited Stalin's preconception by feeding disinformation via Latvian double agent controlled by Gestapo. Fuehrer's personal correspondence telling some rogue elements in the Wehrmacht were poised to strike;however,he would do his best to stop them further deceived Stalin.
Stalin's experience shows how dangerous it is to prejudge enemy's intentions.One needs to have open mind while evaluating enemy's capabilities,plans.If not,one is bound to fall into a self- made trap.
Fact that Wehrmact also made no preparations to conceal its build-up along Soviet borders confused Stalin. He thought Soviet spies were bluffing regarding an impending German attack. That accounts for his violent outburst against Richard Sorge.
To be fair you cannot expect Stalin to be privy to Hitler's innermost thought [incredibly convoluted logic]that he can bring Britain to heel by striking down Soviet Union.Further Soviet dictator was ,I think,was correct in his thinking that Brtish intelligence schemed to entangle Soviet Union in a war with Nazi Germany.Martin Allen's book Hitler/Hess Deception has unwittingly acknowledged this fact.
Author while striving to unravel mystery surrounding Barbarossa has demonised,maligned, Stalin.He dubs Nazi-Soviet non aggression pact as a cynical move on Stalin's side.In my view it was also vaccilation,indifference of Western Allies which gave him an opening to strike a deal with Nazi Germany.
Mr Murphy is a cold war warrior. He has viewed events which unfolded in the east from this angle.
worthy reading but less than expected.......2006-06-09
The book is a very good compilation of already existing information. There is definitely a value in having it together all under the same cover. Also, there are some new tidbits here and there.
And there is no enigma to be solved: in author's view Stalin was self-deceived about Hitler's plans, which is the traditional point of view.
A good effort.......2006-01-30
Since this is more or less my 'forte' when it comes to World War II studies and especially the Eastern Front is where my concentration lies, specifically 1941, I was very pleased to get my hands on a copy of this book even before it was published (thanks to my history professor at my University). Overall it was a solid effort on the part of the author to show how much information Stalin, GRU, and in effect the Soviet Union was receiving from abroad. From Eastern to Western Europe and the US, embassies and personnel were sending information confirming the time of the invasion and detailing what the invasion itself would encompass or simply denying it as part of a German deception campaign.
When viewing this information we can see that much of the data that confirmed the invasion was in fact correct while many details were not. Bottom line being that the idea that an invasion was going to occur was most definitely right but the dates being attributed to the invasion were not.
The first messages began to arrive soon after December 1940 when Hitler has first through up of the invasion, but they were in effect useless since no troop movements had begun. The first thoughts coming into Stalin's mind were probably that it couldn't be true since Germany was still at war with England and Hitler would never make the mistake that was made in World War I when a two front war was fought and lost by Germany.
The US was also one of the first to warn Stalin but in the end why should Stalin trust them? Or Great Britain who also tried to warn him? They had interfered in the Russian civil war, sent their troops to Russian lands to kill Red Army men, and now when only England was standing up to Hitler and Germany would it not suit England's interests to get the USSR on her side? This is one thing that has to be kept in mind, most messages from foreign sources like these were ignored, even worse if they were substantiated by other sources it simply made it seem as if this information was planted.
Later on during one or two months before the invasion began an avalanche of information was forthcoming about Germany's intentions from every corner of the globe. Yet this is where the author makes a mistake, he does not in fact show all German deception that was focused on keeping the Soviet uninformed about their plans nor does he show some of the contradictory information coming in from the very same Soviet agents and sources that said Germany would attack. This is most definitely a lot to grasp and keep in mind. One example of the authors omission is from that famous spy Sorge in Tokyo, a few days before the invasion he sent a message saying "Germany might not attack or if it does it'll be at the end of June" this was sent on June 17th. I have in fact collected some of the volumes that Murphy based his work on and much of the information found in them he has omitted, this being just one example. Although in the end one cannot blame him for this, there is a wealth of information and a limited amount of space to present it all in within Murphy's book. So I commend him for what he's done in at least bringing this topic to light in English.
Now going back to some of the first details that were surfacing about the invasion, their estimates were March, and then later on mid May. March was seen as a joke since this was right after winter and before the rasputitsa would begin, thus Germany would simply be bogged down in the mud. May was more feasible but when it came and went and nothing happened, why should Stalin even consider that if they were wrong once they'd be right the next time? Mobilizing a country, any country, is a lot of work and at that time for Stalin mobilization meant war. The reasons for why he thought Hitler would first make demands are explained in the book, which I give the author credit for finding out, as well as the fact that Golikov the Chief of GRU was hiding a huge amount of information from Stalin and supplying him with what he thought Stalin wanted to see and hear.
This of course made it much harder for Stalin to believe the few pieces of information that might have slipped through or he was told about by others which did in fact confirm the invasion. Usually his estimation of what Germany would do rested with the disinformation Germany was supplying throughout Europe to keep the USSR in the clouds vis a vis German intentions toward it. Also keep in mind that when information started to pile up about German invasion plans, who would believe that such a crucial event would be massively broadcast throughout the world? It would have been believable from a few sources, but from dozens all over the world parroting the same thing? It couldn't be true, it was a deception by the British and Americans to get the USSR into war with Germany! I'm sure I'm forgetting much that was addressed and was forgotten about in this book but overall it is a good investment for those who want to understand something of why this was a surprise to Stalin and what kind of information he was receiving.
Long on detail, but short on substance........2005-10-21
The only real question is why. Why was not Stalin prepared for the German offensive? Despite a huge number of details, some interesting, and most perhaps interesting only to a professional researcher of that epoch, the author does not even attempt to answer the main question, and this is why I am rating this book so low.
Let's face it, Stalin was no idiot. For close to thirty years he was holding together his huge empire not only by the force of his cruelty, but also by the force of his determination, his strong will, his shrewdness, and his superb intellect - this admission should not turn me into his apologist.
In fact, the answer to this question can be easily found right there on page 24 of this book, in the speech that Stalin gave in 1939. According to this speech, he was going to sit out the war in the West until that time that both the British and the Germans were weakened enough. What was supposed to happen after that is fairly obvious.
By many accounts, by the early summer 1941 Stalin thought that the time was ripe, and was amassing his troops in Ukraine for a decisive strike on Romanian oil wells in the Carpathians. As is well known from military history (or pretty much any team sport), preparations for an offensive war are quite different from those for defending one's territory. And Stalin was ready for a war, but only on his own terms. This turned out to be the biggest miscalculation of his whole life, for which the people of the Soviet Empire paid dearly. Stalin did not believe that Hitler would dare to move East, but for Hitler this was the only, however slim, chance to avoid being hit from the rear.
For me as a European Jew, it is truly very painful to say so, but I strongly believe that if Hitler did not expose his policy of racial superiority toward Ukrainian and Russian peasants, he might have been victorious in that war.
Unfortunately, instead of describing the critical personalities, this book is filled with trivial details, which well describe some second-rate personalities, second rate not because of their character or abilities, but because of their influence on unfolding events.

Book Description
Authoritative and immediate, this is the classic account of the most powerful of the American Indian tribes. T.R. Fehrenbach traces the Comanches’ rise to power, from their prehistoric origins to their domination of the high plains for more than a century until their demise in the face of Anglo-American expansion.
Master horseback riders who lived in teepees and hunted bison, the Comanches were stunning orators, disciplined warriors, and the finest makers of arrows. They lived by a strict legal code and worshipped within a cosmology of magic. As he portrays the Comanche lifestyle, Fehrenbach re-creates their doomed battle against European encroachment. While they destroyed the Spanish dream of colonizing North America and blocked the French advance into the Southwest, the Comanches ultimately fell before the Texas Rangers and the U.S. Army in the great raids and battles of the mid-nineteenth century. This is a classic American story, vividly and poignantly told.

A Masterful Piece of Work.......2006-05-16
Unsung and unrecognized, T.R. Fehrenbach is one of America's findest historians of the Southwest. Without a doubt, his book "Comanches: The History of a People," is a masterful piece of work. Wonderfully written and reseached, I learned more about the American Plains Indians'culture in the first three chapters, than I have from any other book.
Since I have taught American history for the last thirty years, it is very difficult to discover a book as well balanced and as informative as Fehrenbach's. He is a joy to read for those who understand the difference between a serious and objective work or a book which attempts to reproduce the inaccurate images brought to us by Hollywood and the national media.
A fascinating insight.......2005-10-22
This book was fascinating and I believe is an essential read for anyone interested in Native Americans. I felt myself going through the same emotions of all of the previous amazon reviewers. However, in retrospect, some of the negative reviews are perhaps a little harsh. Yes, in this day and age one rarely refers to savages, barbarians and high barbarians; yet it does give some idea of the extent to which plains, mountain and woodland indians varied from each other. It also gives us some idea as to why some Indian nations adapted more readily to 'civilization' and others did not. This book is certainly not 'politically correct' and gives a fairly balanced view of Comanche history, together with the associated peoples (Kiowa, Apache, Caddo, Pueblos,Mexicans, Texans and European immigrants), thereby to some extent giving a broader view of Native American history. One needs to keep in mind that social anthropology is not an 'exact' science, depending very much on who wrote it and ultimately who reads it. This is evidenced by the variation in opinions from previous reviewers. For me the most fascinating part of this book was the origins of the Nermernuh (Comanches) and how this fits in with the bigger picture. As far as I know, there is not a single indian reservation left in Texas, indicating the 'uniquenes'of the Comanche/European conflict. Unlike Arizona and New Mexico, few modern Texans seem to have ever had any contact with Native Americans?
A Fantastic Work - Other Present-Day Writers on AmerIndians Could Take Lessons From This!!!.......2005-06-07
T.R. Fehrenbach wrote this book in the most historically accurate and logical manner possible - a far cry from the blatant, fanciful STORY TELLING pawned off as "historic literature" which is relentlessly churned out by other present-day writers on American Indian tribes, such as Dan L. Thrapp, Edwin Sweeney, David Roberts, etc.
Fehrenbach stands head-and-shoulders above these other writers because he simply relates FACTS and in no way attempts to sway the reader to any whimsical, Politically Correct conclusions. He, unlike Thrapp, Sweeney, Roberts, and ilk, does not write about individual leaders or warriors as if he knew them or was alive during their times. He does not pretend to know WHY the people his book deals with did what they did, he only relates what they did, how they did it, and what resulted from their activities within the time they lived. THIS IS THE PROPER, SENSIBLE, AND REALISTIC WAY TO WRITE ABOUT HISTORIC EVENTS AND SPECIFIC PEOPLES!
Equally, Fehrenback does not "sugar-coat the pill" so to speak. He does not bend to what today is the Politically Correct propaganda/party line which keeps present-day writers constantly santizing uncomfortable information about their subject matter - the long-vanished AmerIndians of the Wild Frontier.
EVERYTHING about the Comanche Indians; their culture, habits in war, their tactics, their diplomatic capacities, and their treatment of non-related peoples is ALL HERE in the most straight-forward, cold-hard-facts condition. Fehrenbach shows the reader that the Comanche were what they were. He exposes their culture for what it was. He does not insult the reader by making rash judgements or spewing out page after page of lies-in-print to make the Comanches seem what they were not. Fahrenbach relays everything to the reader in the most clear way possible. This is what makes this book so wonderful !!! The reader can definitely learn about a group of people and about what they did down through several hundred years of history, while not being bombarded with drivel and preposterous nonsense springing from the author's whimsical and illogical imagination! You get the facts and nothing but the facts - layed bare for examination. Most impressive!
Now, if you care to read ANY of the junk literature about the Apache Indians authored by the likes of Dan L. Thrapp, Edwin Sweeney, David Roberts, etc. and then read this book by Fehrenbach, you'll see EXACTLY what I mean by the difference between what an historically accurate book is and what a STORY TELLING book is. You see, STORY TELLING BOOKS simply use details about historic periods as a framework from which to hang the author's biases, fantasies, outright lies, and ridiculous and baseless conclusions on. Fehrenbach does not do this in the least. Thrapp, Sweeney, Roberts, and others do - in the extreme!
This is a marvelous book in every respect. In fact, anyone of the "Dances With Wolves" mindset should do themselves a favor and READ IT in order to experience what its like to absorb truth and untampered-with facts rather than Politically Correct programming.
I can't recommend this book enough! And as a follow-up, you should seriously consider the following two titles. They are also exceptionally well done and highly informative -
The Kiowas (Civilization of the American Indian Series)
Five Indian Tribes of the Upper Missouri: Sioux, Arickaras, Assiniboines, Crees and Crows (Civilization of the American Indian Series, No 59)
By reading this masterful material of Fehrenbach's and these other two books I've recommended, you'll be well on your way to acquiring a superb and TRUE understanding of the AmerIndian of yesteryear.
More Than a History.......2004-10-23
Perhaps no author does a better job than Fehrenbach when it comes to writing a history that gives the reader an insight into the very souls of the people involved. This is the story of a tragedy, one that has been left largely untold by the movies, western fiction or the history books found in our schools. It is certainly not a romanticized version written from the Indian perspective, but it cannot help but leave one with serious questions regarding our treatment of the Comanches, Kiowas and other tribes. At the same time, the author objectively describes the forces behind the whites' usurpation of the domain of the Plains Indians. Highly recommended if you are prepared to read a history that will make you think.
Unbalanced Reporting.......2004-09-17
A fascinating history that gave me a thorough understanding of the world of the Commanche. That said, I did have some serious issues with the book, which in my opinion was racially biased. American Indians were continuously referred to as "Savages" and "Barbarians" (Cherokees having the dubious honor of being referred to as "High Barbarians"). The book illuminated the reasons why war between the Commanche and anglos was inevitable, but while atrocities were certainly committed by both sides, violence perpetrated by the indians was described in brutal, bloody, cruel, detail. In contrast, a U.S. Cavalry massacre of entire camps (typically mostly women and children) was noticeably abbreviated. In fact the author even makes a point of trying to assert that these women and children "were as dangerous as the warriors themselves" in defense of the wholesale massacres. White armed forces, who were essentially waging a war of extermination, were typically described as "valiant" and "courageous". The Indians "murderous", "bloody", and "mindless". In a war between two cultures, how one side can be "heroic" and the other " murderous" is very questionable. But then we all know that history is written by the victor. Seemingly the only Indian the author express any real admiration for is Chief Quanah Parker. But then coincidently Quanah was half white.
The book is determined to unfairly dehumanize an entire people, and succeeds in doing just that.
Book Description
Unlike most other similar books, this systematic, carefully reasoned, non-technical analysis of the nature and significance of scientific knowledge opens the way to reconciliation in the 'science wars'. By describing how academic scientists actually undertake research and communicate their findings, it shows that the philosophy, psychology and sociology of science are inextricably entwined, and that 'realism' and 'relativism' are just two sides of the same coin. The writing is well-informed, down-to-earth and lucid.

‘O brave new world, That has such people in’t!’
Shakespeare, The Tempest
New scientific developments are changing the world, but whether the world of our children and grandchildren will be the hell of Huxley’s Brave New World or the sheltered paradise described by Shakespeare depends on how we choose to use these developments.
That choice will frequently be driven by our appreciation of what human beings really are. In this thought-provoking book Pete Moore presents an antidote to the scientific reductionism that so frequently seeks to narrow any definition of our species by single features, such as our genes or the ability of our brains. This exploration of the nature of humanity reveals the rainbow spectrum that makes us who we are. Through discussions with individuals whose lives help us to focus on individual aspects of our make up, Moore explores the difficult issues that are facing us.
This book provides a timely reminder that technology cannot be separated from its impact on real people and how their lives are changed for the better or worse. Medical developments offer tremendous opportunities for good, but if we lose sight of what it is to be human they also have the ability to be used for very dangerous, even evil purposes. We have a chance to influence this future. We should not ignore the challenge.
DR PETE MOORE is a medical journalist and an official rapporteur at Windsor Castle and the House of Lords. He is the author of Blood and Justice (0470 848421, Hbk / 0470 84844 8 Pbk).

How it should be done.......2004-02-18
Christine Whipp always knew there was something wrong about the way she fitted in - or rather, didn't fit in - with her family. Finally, when she was 41, her mother told her the reason: she had been conceived by donor insemination. Since then, Christine has tried to find out who her biological father was. "I want to know where I belong", she says.
Our relatedness is part of who we are; part of what makes us human. In this very readable book, Pete Moore writes popular medicine, science and philosophy as they should be written: through individual lives. He deals with nine different aspects of what it means to be a person - the embodied, conscious, genetic, historical, related, material, spiritual, sexual and social - by telling the stories of people who are extreme examples of each.
Moore muses about these facets of our humanity in the light of current theories. He concludes that "being me" doesn't lie in any particular aspect. Just as the imact of a painting does not depend on any one brush stroke, but emerges indefinably from them all, so our humanity is more complex than any breakdown of this type can pinpoint.
I would have liked a chapter on memory, which seems to me one of the crucial elements of our human mix. Even without it, however, this book is an intelligent and warm-hearted exploration of the human condition.
A fresh look at a classic topic.......2003-12-17
Moore does away with the complex academic language and instead uses great stories of real people's lives to give insights into what it means to be human. It has depth, humor and content - I couldn't put it down.
