Story1
The implosion of the Soviet Union was the culmination of a gripping game played out between two men who intensely disliked each other and had different concepts for the future. Mikhail Gorbachev, a sophisticated and urbane reformer, sought to modernize and preserve the USSR; Boris Yeltsin, a coarse and a hard drinking “bulldozer,” wished to destroy the union and create a capitalist Russia. The defeat of the August 1991 coup attempt, carried out by hardline communists, shook Gorbachev’s authority and was a triumph for Yeltsin.

Story1
Despite the best efforts of a number of historians, many aspects of the ferocious struggle between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union during the Second World War remain obscure or shrouded in myth. One of the most persistent of these is the notion - largely created by many former members of its own officer corps in the immediate postwar period - that the German Army was a paragon of military professionalism and operational proficiency whose defeat on the Eastern Front was solely attributable to the amateurish meddling of a crazed former Corporal.

Story1
During the last years of the Cold War, the Soviet Union sent some of its most elite troops to unfamiliar lands in Central Asia to fight a vaguely defined enemy, which eventually defeated their superior number with unconventional tactics. Although the Soviet leadership initially saw the invasion as a victory, many Russian soldiers came to view the war as a demoralizing and devastating defeat, the consequences of which had a substantial impact on the Soviet Union and its collapse.

Story1
On a moonless night in January 1991, a dozen US aircraft appeared in the skies over Baghdad. To the Iraqi air defenses, the planes seemed to come from nowhere. Each aircraft was more than 60 feet in length and with a wingspan of 40 feet, yet its radar footprint was the size of a ball bearing. Here was the first extensive combat application of Stealth technology. And it was devastating.

Крах династии Романовых—один из самых трагичных моментов прошлого столетия. Отречение Николая II от престола повлекло за собой череду событий, которые изменили не только судьбу целой страны, но и политическую карту Восточного полушария. Ослабление власти императора, укрепление революционного движения, приход к власти большевиков—принято считать, что эти события были неизбежны. Но это не так. Не судьба обрекла Романовых на гибель—это было следствием плохого руководства и слепой веры в самодержавие.

О самых громких уголовных делах советской эпохи. Многие материалы ранее не публиковались и были впервые выданы из архивов лично автору. Благодаря доступу к этим документам и общению с очевидцами Еве Меркачёвой удалось восстановить картины судебных процессов над последним казненным в СССР—маньяком Фишером, над единственным расстрелянным в советское время ребенком Аркадием Нейландом, над палачом Антониной Макаровой по прозвищу Тонька-пулеметчица, над Бертой Бородкиной, накрывавшей столы самому Леониду Брежневу—единственной приговоренной к высшей мере по экономической статье.

Почему Россия, страна с богатейшей культурой, отстает от Запада в экономическом развитии? Дмитрий Травин предлагает неожиданный взгляд на этот вопрос, разрушая устоявшиеся мифы о рабской культуре, врожденной лени или особом пути. В своем глубоком исследовании автор раскрывает реальные исторические причины отставания России, анализируя влияние кочевников, географического положения и политических процессов; при этом он сопоставляет развитие России и Европы, показывая, как формировалась современная экономика и государственность на Западе.

Политика Бориса Ельцина в середине и конце 1990-х годов формировалась под влиянием Семьи — узкого круга людей, который влиял на все ключевые решения в стране. В этот круг вошел и журналист Валентин Юмашев. Как это произошло и какие решения он помогал принимать президенту? На излете ельцинского правления Семья привела к власти Владимира Путина. Как сложилась судьба Юмашева и других близких Ельцину людей в путинское правление? И есть ли у Путина своя «семья» — неформальное сообщество людей, определяющих политику страны?

Это живое и достоверное повествование о непростой истории СССР, усыпанное яркими деталями, неожиданными ракурсами и остроумными замечаниями. В первую очередь Фицпатрик ясно показывает множество парадоксов советского эксперимента. Идеология, утверждавшая, что дарует человеку власть над историей, сама не справилась с непредвиденными обстоятельствами. Считающее себя интернационалистским и антиимпериалистическим государство породило множество национализмов.
