Soviet Union: myths and reality. Prokopenko I.S.

This book includes the best chapters of the superbesseller of the famous TV presenter Igor Prokopenko, Pravda of the Soviet Union. You will not find in this book neither the extension of the Soviet period of history, nor its belief. The author honestly speaks of the great achievements and great crimes of the Soviet era. The uniqueness of this book is that the author, together with the reader, seems to be passing through years and decades, noting important, but not always well -known nodal points of Russian history. Why wasn't Lenin's autobiography written? Was Stalin a double? How did the allies of the USSR during World War II business with fascist Germany? Why did the relations of the famous marshals - Zhukov and Konev deteriorated? Why does the legacy of the Cold War become relevant again? What is the difference between GOST and TU? How did one Moscow street become a mirror of Soviet history - from the first years of the revolution to perestroika?
