It is a very good reference for the battle. Unfortunately it is out of print.

I have it.

You may borrow it so long as you visit my place and wear gloves :)

You'll have to search the used book vendors as stated above (book is out of print). Guys were finding limited quantities before and paying a relatively high price for the used books available.

Don't have it so can't address whether the cost is worth it or not.

It's a decent book. It tells the story primarily from the German perspective which is surprising given that Soviet archives had been opened by the time it was written. It's available from abebooks.com for obscene prices - $150+. I've had good luck picking up used books cheap from ebay, so you might try that.
