900 Days. The Siege of Leningrad

The famous American journalist Harrison Salisbury (1908–1993) created a vivid and poignant image of the Leningrad blockade – from the everyday life of ordinary citizens to the assessments of the highest military-political leadership of the USSR. The author provides an honest description of the situation in the besieged city. On the pages of this book, the heroism of Leningraders appears as a true triumph of the human spirit. This edition is released with a preface and comments by the outstanding historian O.A. Rzhevskiy.
