S7 E02 - Iain MacGregor on Stalingrad History Rage

    • History

This week we welcome author and Head of Non Fiction for Head of Zeus Books, Iain MacGregor and Iain wants to rage about Stalingrad. How the Battle just should never have happened in the first place, it was completely unnecessary and how Paulus has been scapegoated for the surrender when he was just the wrong guy.
We talk about the myth of Pavlov's House, the propaganda war and just how do you manage to find the truth of a story when your sources are the Third Reich and Stalin's Russia.
You can pre-order Iain's book "The Lighthouse of Stalingrad" at the History Rage Bookshop and you can follow him on Twitter @Iain_MacGregor1
