A new book by the outstanding historian, writer and military analyst Viktor Suvorov, written in the best traditions of the bestsellers "Icebreaker" and "Aquarium", is a grandiose historical reconstruction of the events of the late 1950s - the first half of the 1960s, when, as a result of the confrontation between the two superpowers, the USSR and the USA, mankind found itself on the brink of World War III, on the verge of death in a global nuclear catastrophe. A new sensational version of our political and military history, destroying the usual ideas and myths about the driving forces and causes of the key events of the mid-twentieth century.
Putting the well-known and little-known facts and events of those years into a single mosaic, the author talks about the true causes of the Berlin and Caribbean crises that official propaganda, politicians and historians in Russia and abroad are silent about. These events were the culmination of the second half of the 20th century, a turning point and predetermined the historical fate of the Soviet Union and communist ideology, the subsequent collapse of the USSR and the triumph of capitalist economies and the free market.
This book is about how the leadership of the USSR, led by Nikita Khrushchev, striving to preserve the "cause of Lenin", tried to achieve what Stalin planned, but could not achieve during the Second World War - to fan the fire of the World Revolution and, under the guise of communist ideology, achieve world domination.
This is a book about political intrigues and the struggle for power, about the confrontation between the two superpowers and their special services, about secret intelligence operations and about people who pushed humanity to death and saved it.

The book contains more than 150 photographs, including unique archival photographs published in Russia for the first time.
