Fire and Ice: The Winter War of Finland and Russia
Fire
and Ice tells the story of the Winter War, the Soviet Union's invasion
of Finland in November, 1939. The Soviets were convinced they could win
the war in a matter of days. No one expected that tiny Finland could
resist the highly mechanized Red Army, the largest military force in the
world. And no one anticipated that 1939 would be one of the coldest
winters in recorded history.
During 105 days of intensely bloody and brutal combat, Finland
improvised a devastating and deadly defense, for an environment
historians have called a frozen hell.
The Winter War changed the course of what would soon become World War
II.
