The story of the men who led the Red Army in the Great Patriotic War. Describes what it was like to perform under the sharply critical eye of an unforgiving, paranoid commander in chief, and the ubiquitous representatives of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union as well. The author reveals a largely hidden aspect of World War Two, with his account of how these leaders defeated Nazi Germany in a pressure-cooker environment with little trust or moral support.
