"December of 1941, the German Offensive in Russia came to a halt. The Soviet leadership unleashed its reserves in a counteroffensive. In the Northern sector, the Third Russian Shock Army achieved a breakthrough on 8 January 1942 and enveloped German forces at a number of spots, including Demjansk. About 100 kilometers southwest of Demjansk, lay the small town of Cholm. The German garrison there was surrounded on 21 January. As in other cases, Hitler ordered them to hold to the last man. Generalmajor Theodor Scherer, the commander of 281.Sicherungs-Division, was tasked with organizing Cholm's defense. From the mishmash of German units reeling back from the Soviet attack, he organized approximately 5500 men and held the city for 105 days against overwhelming odds. This unique book illustrates with more than 150 photos taken during the encirclement this significant battle and shows the conditions and hardships faced by the men of Kampfgruppe Scherer throughout the battle until the town was liberated. with fold-out map,"
