An annotated bibliography for Moscow 1941.
Braithwaite, R. (2006). Moscow 1941: A city and its people at war. Profile Books.
Braithwaite has a lot of information on Moscow during 1941 but relatively little of a direct military nature.
Jones, M. (2009). The Retreat: Hitler’s first defeat. John Murray.
Jones has a similar style of Braithwaite. He focuses more on military affairs but it is hard to pull out coherent information on military activity.
Books to find
Bek, A (1944). Volokolamsk Highway.
Aleksandr Bek fought in the 8th voluntary division “Krasnaja Presnja” in the defence of Moscow. Although a “novel” the book describes his battalion’s experiences on the highway to Moscow near Volokolamsk. Volokolamsk Highway is hard to find, or at least expensive to obtain, but SovLit have a Summary of Volokolamsk Highway.
