I’m hoping some of the folks here can provide some recommendations on more digestible/readable books on the Eastern Front with interesting theses and more contemporary takes. One of my issues with Glantz is that, despite his thorough research and analysis, he sometimes can get lost in details and fail to provide an clear picture of what is happening in a battle or operation. That said, I’m open to trying a couple more of his works.
I happen to have some extra time since my workload typically decreases a bit in December and I’ll have some great time to do more reading. I’m looking mostly for military/warfare-focused books. Any suggestions?
Thanks!!!

What of Glantz have you read? If you haven't read When Titans Clashed, it's a nicer read than many of his works - Jonathan House's coauthorship saves it from Glantz's customary dryness.
