Маршал Малиновский. От солдата до маршала

He was a talented commander and prudent politician. For ten years, he determined the fate of the huge Soviet Army. Marshal of the Soviet Union Rodion Yakovlevich Malinovsky went through a thorny path from a soldier of the Russian Corps, who fought in France during the First World War, to the all-powerful Minister of Defense of the USSR. During the Great Patriotic War, he commanded armies and fronts. He planned and carried out the most beautiful strikes of the Red Army - such as the Odessa and Yasso-Kishinev operations. His troops took Budapest. However, Malinovsky remained forever in the shadow of the brilliant Zhukov and Rokossovsky. Perhaps because he did not leave memoirs. Before you is the first serious biography of this remarkable Soviet commander.
