On June 22, 1941, radios all over the Soviet Union crackled with
the announcement that the country had been attacked by Nazi
Germany. But the voice on the airwaves was not the familiar one of
Joseph Stalin; it was the voice of his deputy, Molotov. Paralyzed
by Hitler's unexpected move, Stalin disappeared completely from
public view for the crucial ten days of war on the Eastern Front.
In this taut, hour-by-hour account, Constantine Pleshakov draws on
a wealth of information from newly opened archives to elucidate the
complex causes of the Soviet leader's reaction, revealing the
feared despot's unrealized military stratagems as well as his
personal vulnerabilities, while also offering a new and deeper
understanding of Russian history.
