Битва за Берлин. Флаг над Рейхстагом

1945. Year of the Great Victory. "Star hour" of the Soviet people. The date of the greatest triumph in Russian history. However, the finale of the Great Patriotic War, the fierce Battle of Berlin, still remains one of the main trump cards of anti-Soviet propaganda - "liberal" revisionist historians continue to talk about "mediocre command" and "unjustified losses", about the "bloody frontal assault on the Seelow Heights" and " tank armies burned in street battles", about "criminal haste" and "squabbling of military leaders", who supposedly did not spare soldiers' lives, if only to be the first to report the victory to the top and ascribe to themselves the laurels of the "conqueror of Berlin" ... This book refutes all these speculative myths, leaving no stone unturned from them. In his fundamental research, the leading military historian not only scrupulously analyzes the course of the Battle of Berlin, but also gives an objective assessment of the main decisions and actions of the parties, irrefutably proving that the Berlin offensive operation is rightfully considered one of the most successful and exemplary in history.
