About Hitler's Arctic War (The German Campaigns in Norway, Finland and the USSR 1940–1945)
<span>‘In the past the German General Staff had taken no interest in the military history of wars in the north and east of Europe. </span><p><span>"Nobody had ever taken into account the </span><span>possibility that some day German divisions would have to fight and to winter in</span><br><span>northern Karelia and on the Murmansk coast.''</span></p><p><span>(Lieutenant-General Waldemar </span><span>Erfurth, German Army). </span></p><p><span>Despite this statement, the German Army’s first campaign in the far north was a great success: between April and June 1940 German forces totalling less than 20,000 men seized Norway, a state of three million people, for minimal losses. </span></p><p><span>Hitler’s Arctic War is a study of the campaign waged by the Germans on the northern periphery of Europe between 1940-45.</span><br><br><span>As Hitler’s Arctic War makes clear, the emphasis was on small-unit actions, with soldiers carrying everything they needed – food, ammunition and medical supplies – on their backs. The terrain placed limitations on the use of tanks and </span><span>heavy artillery, while the lack of airfields restricted the employment of aircraft.</span><br><br><span>Hitler’s Arctic War also includes a chapter on the campaign fought by Luftwaffe aircraft and Kriegsmarine ships and submarines against the Allied convoys supplying the Soviet Union with aid. </span></p><p><span>However, Wehrmacht resources committed to Norway and Finland were ultimately an unnecessary drain on the German war effort.</span></p><p><span> Hitler’s Arctic War is a ground-breaking study of how war was waged in the far north and its effects on long term German strategy.</span></p><p><span>CHRIS MANN is a lecturer in European history at the University of Surrey and University College, London.
