Opis

From these pages speak out the dead, those who died fighting the Nazi invaders between 1941 and 1945. This is a collection of their letters and documents written in the last minutes of their lives - in a Gestapo cell, a concentration camp or in the heat of battle. Here is a passionate call for triumph over fascism and world reaction, an appeal to those who survived to carry on the fight for mankind's future happiness, for eternal peace among all men. These words of farewell written by Soviet partisans, underground fighters, soldiers, girls and boys driven into captivity, give an exceptionally penetrating insight into the Soviet character- the moral integrity, faith in victory, hatred for the foe and fervent patriotism.
