This programme recounts the key developments in the 'Great Patriotic War'. The Nazi/Soviet pact, the invasion of Eastern Poland, the annexation of the Baltic states, Operation Barbarossa, the battles of Kursk, Stallingrad and Berlin, and the defeat of Hitler. But the emphasis in this 'history with a human face' is upon life away from the battlefront.
This film was first broadcast: 12 Aug 1990
