Abstract:

The review of the book by Leon Goure, The siege of Leningrad, charges that Goure believes it would have been more sensible to give up the city to the mercy of the victor, that he does not condem the fascists for the human losses in Leningrad caused by bombing and hunger, and that he believes that the Leningraders under siege thought only about themselves, their own local interests, belongings, and meager well-being.
