"Michael Jones tells the human story of the siege of Leningrad. Drawing on newly available eyewitness accounts, he shows Leningrad in its every dimension including taboos such as looting, criminal gangs and cannibalism. Jones' history reveals that when the 900-day siege finally came to an end in 1944, more than a million people had died, and those who survived would be permanently marked by what they had endured."--BOOK JACKET.
