1941. Battle for Moscow. Matonin E.

The book is the memory of the military generation, the book is both the voice of a distant era and the assessment of modern historical science. Memories of various people: from ordinary participants in the battles to Marshals, photo documents of the events of the fall of 1941.

This book is about what happened during the Moscow battle on the fronts and in Moscow itself. About the military and, oddly enough, the peaceful life of the city in the conditions of a real enemy siege. About how the German operation “Typhoon” fell on Moscow, how this same “typhoon” managed to tame, and that Muscovites played far from the last role in the taming of “Typhoon”.

the book was illustrated by unique photographs and contains a number of documents, including those from which the secrecy vulture was removed only recently.

The main task of the book is to create the widest panorama of the battle of Moscow, to move away from collections of dry numbers and reports, alternative stories the beginning of war, speculation and falsifications.
