Описание:
In the years following the Civil War, plans were drawn up to build a major set of fortifications along the Russian western border. Work began in 1928, leading to a front that stretched over 2000 km from the Baltic to the Black Sea. By the outbreak of World War II, the defences of the Stalin Line, as it was known, were largely complete - but were also now too far behind the new Soviet border to be of any use in potential offensives. Stalin took steps to create a new defensive line inside Poland, which came to be associated with the Soviet Foreign Minister, Molotov. This book details the development of these lines, and the fighting that took place around them in 1941.Похожие книги
