Andropov's time
99.99 €
This book is about Yuri Vladimirovich Andropov - the most famous chairman of the KGB. Fifteen years he led the formidable agency in Lubyanka and only fifteen months stood at the head of the country. The trace he left in history is still hotly debated. Andropov is the most enigmatic leader of the USSR. The imagination is stirred by everything - from the undisclosed mystery of his origin to his plans for the post of General Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee. Why he came and what he wanted - this is the main question. The book attempts to reveal the mystery of birth, childhood and adolescence of Yuri Vladimirovich and describe his short and dramatic stay at the top of power. The period of his work in state security is not neglected. The book is based on numerous previously unknown documents, including materials from the KGB archive. The publication is richly illustrated: facsimiles of many documents, portraits of associates and people close to Andropov. Much is published for the first time. The edition is provided with an annotated index of names.
