Publisher's Synopsis
Produced during the final phase of the Vietnam War and first released in 1977, this book presents a powerful restaging of events from World War II that remains poignant today. Two graphic innovators, Levinthal and Trudeau, combine selected archival material with their own meticulously-constructed miniature settings providing a haunting recreation of Germany's dramatic invasion of the Soviet Union. What emerges from their story is a special sort of truth born of contrast and a visual history told in terms of uncommon contradictions.
