Very interesting as I have never heard anything about this campaign before.

Military History Visualized

yeah, it is mostly unmentioned, yet, looking at the comments etc. I think there is also a "generational divide". Rzhev had its own episode in the Soviet Documentary, which is rather new. Similarly, there is a map in Company of Heroes 2 too. The Russian book was originally published in 2007. So I suspect most people older than about 30 never heard of it, whereas a lot of the "younger ones" have, e.g., they see a map in Company of Heroes 2 and then look it up on wikipedia.
