    Has anyone already read this gigantic feat of research?
    What did you made of it?

    Today i went to the custom services to pick up my copy, and.... it's massive 1662 pages (double columns).

    Man, can't wait to start reading it

    After i googled it i found out it costs a real fortune (at least in comparison with my salary). About 230-240 UK pounds.
    I believe this book is specially designed for the person who wants to follow the course of Kursk batlle literally minute by minute.

    ..saw that the author was claiming it was the biggest non-fiction book ever published in a single volume - what on earth was he thinking? Why wasn't it in several volumes?

    He probably decided to kill two birds with one stone - Write a great book and set the record as well.
