For the first time, the book tells in detail about combat pilots-twice and three times the heroes of the Soviet Union, including: fighter pilots and pilots-shitty people, aviation commanders and bombers pilots. For the first time, their biographies are collected under one cover. For the first time, these biographies are written on the basis of archival documents, and not in the form of beautiful essays, in which everything does not always correspond to historical truth.
Unfortunately, it so happened that the names of some heroes of this book are known to almost everyone, and the names of the rest (and most of them) are only a narrow circle of historians. To eliminate this injustice, this book is written, which will become a kind of monument to the already departed heroes.
All biographies are illustrated by photographs (among which many previously not published) and drawings of aircraft on which the heroes of the book flew during the Great Patriotic War. At the end of each biography, detailed information about the awards and titles of heroes is contained, and among the fighter pilots - lists of their victories.
All this allows us to consider this publication a kind of encyclopedia, which will undoubtedly interest a wide range of readers. Historians and aviation lovers will also find a lot of interesting things in it
