A leather-bound book "1943. The Battle of Kursk. The Great Turning Point"

The book is the memory of the military generation, the book is both the voice of a distant era and an assessment of modern historical science. It is about one of the most key events of the Great Patriotic War, and indeed the entire Second World War– the Battle of Kursk. It lasted 50 days, from July 5 to August 23, 1943. This heroic and tragic time is reflected in the documents and newspapers of that time collected in the book, as well as letters, diaries and memoirs.

Their authors are a variety of people. ""From world-famous military leaders to ordinary infantrymen, tankers, pilots, armored fighters who burned the German "Tigers" and "Panthers". And also writers, artists, teachers, and ordinary Soviet citizens. Some of them experienced an unprecedented power strike from the German "armored fist" near Kursk, but they were able to withstand, withstand and force the Nazis to retreat. Others were in the rear, but left behind valuable eyewitness accounts of the atmosphere in which the country lived during the Battle of Kursk.

The main objective of the book is to provide the widest panorama of the Battle of Kursk, which is often called the "Great Turning Point" in the Great Patriotic War. Indeed, after the summer of 1943, Germany had already lost the strategic initiative forever, and the Red Army was advancing nonstop to the West until Victory. But do not forget that this turning point was possible only thanks to the tremendous exertion of forces, unprecedented heroism and huge losses that the Soviet Union suffered during the 50 "Kursk days".

The book is illustrated with unique photographs and contains a number of documents, including those from which the secrecy gif has only recently been removed.
