Beschreibung
The book by the renowned Russian historian Boris Sokolov presents the most pressing issues related to the Soviet Union's participation in World War II. The author attempts to objectively answer complex questions such as the causes of World War II, the roles of Stalin and Hitler in its outbreak, the consequences of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, and the reasons for the ultimate failure of the German blitzkrieg on the Eastern Front. The book also analyzes the decisive battles of the Great Patriotic War, evaluates the role of the Lend-Lease Agreement, the contribution of the Western Allies to the victory over Germany, and answers the question of whether Soviet victory would have been possible without the help of the United States and Great Britain. Great attention is paid to determining the losses on the Soviet-German front. At the same time, it clarifies some legends created by Soviet propaganda. The author also presents the harsh life of civilians not only in the territories occupied by Germany but also in the Soviet rear.
