read extracts of this book in 'Barbarossa' (link to 'Barbarossa' given in my previous post), but have not read it (except the duel scene) though i own it:

http://www.amazon.com/NOTES-RUSSIAN-SNIPER-Vassili-Zaitsev/dp/1848325657/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1344978495&sr=1-1&keywords=zaitsev

The author Zaitsev's personal duel with a german sniper (recounted in this book) is the basis for the Hollywood movie 'Enemy at the Gates'. A better translation of the duel is to be found in 'Barbarossa'.
