At the heart of a successful military strategy is a perfectly fine-tuned military machine - a complex mechanism that protects the country in combat and peacetime. In all the leading countries of the world, it manifested itself most clearly in the Second World War. Here is a chronicle of the creation of one of the most powerful military vehicles in history, to this day effectively supporting the defense of the United States. With only 100,000 men in reserve after World War I, America’s military-industrial complex grew at a rapid rate, which allowed it to play a crucial role in the fight against the Nazis. Ground units of various purposes, detachments of the Air Force, the shock American fleet, fearless Marines and Coast Guard troops, made an invaluable contribution to the victory of the Allies over the common enemy. A detailed account of the formation of each branch of the military and the weapons that provide their power is provided with an impressive documentary chronicle and a rich set of facts from the military archives. close

"Nuremberg, which was not" - a documentary, the creation of which worked director Igor Kholodkov. There was a moment in the history of the country when the “Russian Nuremberg” could become a reality.
The initiator of such changes was Olga Shatunovskaya, who returned from Kolyma, and a group of her close associates who were Stalinist convicts and had a colossal influence on Khrushchev. This group collected 64 volumes of horrifying documents that could reveal the true nature of Stalin and all his executioners. But too many “inquisitors” were in power, and they managed to convince Khrushchev to postpone the publication for several years. This was enough time to dismiss Khrushchev and destroy almost all the documents. close

Stretching from the Stone Age to the year 2000, Simon Schama's Complete History of Britain does not pretend to be a definitive chronicle of the turbulent events which buffeted and shaped the British Isles. What Schama does do, however, is tell the story in vivid and gripping narrative terms, free of the fustiness of traditional academe, personalising key historical events by examining the major characters at the centre of them. Not all historians would approve of the history depicted here as shaped principally by the actions of great men and women rather than by more abstract developments, but Schama's way of telling it is a good deal more enthralling as a result.
Schama successfully gives lie to the idea that the history of Britain has been moderate and temperate, passing down the generations as stately as a galleon, taking on board sensible ideas but steering clear of sillier, revolutionary ones. Nonsense. Schama retells British history the way it was--as bloody, convulsive, precarious, hot-blooded and several times within an inch of haring off onto an entirely different course. Schama seems almost to delight in the goriness of history. Themes returned to repeatedly include the wars between the Scots and the Irish and the Catholic/Protestant conflicts--only the Irish question remains unresolved by the new millennium. As Britain becomes a constitutional monarchy, Schama talks less of Kings and Queens but of poets and idea-makers like Orwell. Still, with his pungent, direct manner and against an evocative visual and aural backdrop, Schama makes history seem as though it happened yesterday, the bloodstains not yet dry. close
