All you have ever known is the madness of the front lines and of men butchering each other.

No information on it is currently available Product Highlights Second Lieutenant James Anderson Born in 1924, Anderson is a war child, an orphan of unknown parents. At 19, he volunteered for the army and advanced quickly through the ranks to become a second lieutenant. Now, in 1964, he has managed to stay alive and is a legendary figure in the trenches. He only has one motivating desire: to survive. Psychological profile: he is at breaking point Baron Ungern Sternberg Born in Estonia towards the end of the nineteenth century. Taking advantage of the civil war between the White Russians and the Bolsheviks, he succeeded in stabilizing the Mongol empire, building a mighty army and seizing power. An inflexible, mystical Buddhist, he is sickened by capitalist speculation and European politics and therefore wants to expand his empire from Vladivostok to the Atlantic. Radically different from traditional Tsarist officers, the Baron is tormented by dreams of grandeur and is fiercely independent. He is attached to his troops but is also capable of unparalleled cruelty. Ccile Newcastel Her career got off to an exemplary start and, at 32, she is a captain in the prestigious Royal Highland Regiment, and is Lieutenant James Anderson's commanding officer. Respected by her men and with a spotless service record, she is nonetheless uneasy, aware that she is that certain lobbies wish to see the war continue as they are making vast sums of money from it.
