Having finished a twelve episodes about naval operations in 1939, the History of the Second World War podcast has just begun a series on the invasion of Norway.

This looks interesting. I have recently finished reading Narvik but that only covers the naval side of the battle for Norway. I want to learn more about the rest of it.

Can anyone recommend a book that looks at the Winter War of 1939-1940 from the Soviet point of view?

Most of the Winter War books I've encountered are written from the Finnish POV. There must be others, but perhaps not available in translation?

War of the White Death: Finland Against the Soviet Union 1939-40 by Bair Irincheev does a good job of describing operations from both the Finnish side and the Soviet side.
