Boris Kovalev - professor, doctor of historical sciences, leading researcher at the St. Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences. In the Great Patriotic War against the Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and officers from European countries - allies of Hitler Germany fought: Hungary, Italy, Finland, Romania. And also from Spain, which, as you know, did not take official participation in the war. The Spanish "Blue Division" arrived at the Eastern Front in October 1941, until August 1942 she was deployed in Novgorod and its environs, from where she was thrown near Leningrad, where she took part in bloody battles with the Red Army. It was the stubborn resistance of the soldiers of the Spanish "Blue Division" in the winter of 1943 that did not allow to remove the blockade of Leningrad a year earlier. The book uses numerous archival documents, diary entries and memoirs of Spanish volunteers, Soviet soldiers and residents of the occupied territories, as well as scientific works of foreign researchers
