To the 75th anniversary of the complete removal of the blockade of Leningrad. Why the second largest city in the Soviet Union with a population of more than 2.5 million people, the largest industrial and cultural center, the most important port of the country, was in the blockade - this issue remains one of the main "white spots" of the Great Patriotic War. In this book, the leading researcher of the battle for Leningrad on the basis of documents of both domestic and German archives in detail restores the events of 1941 near Leningrad and the role of tank formations in them, answering the most complex, controversial and painful issues.
Why could not the reconnaissance of the Red Army reveal the regrouping of formations between the Army Groups of the Center and the North and the transfer of a fresh motorized corps under Leningrad? What tank connection of the Wehrmacht played a key role in the interruption of the Leningrad railway message with the country, and then in the closure of the blockade ring? What is the true contribution of Marshals Voroshilov, Kulik and Zhukov to the defense of the city on the Neva? Why did the command of the Army Group North abandoned the assault on Leningrad? What is the real story of the death of the legendary 124th tank brigade in early October 1941? (This episode of the battle for Leningrad thanks to numerous photographs on the Internet of broken heavy tanks of the HRO of this brigade has long attracted lovers of military history) Finally, why did the attempts of the Soviet troops endure the blockade in the fall of 1941, which would save hundreds of thousands of lives?
