In one thing, American and English authors agree: they all exaggerate the significance of "the second front in Western Europe and deliberately downplay the significance of the decisive victories of the Soviet Army, although they recognized them during the Second World War. The book "Truth about the Second Front," offered to the attention of readers, does not pursue the goal of disassembling these efforts step by step to falsify history. Its purpose is simpler and more modest: to give the Soviet reader an idea of ​ ​ what really happened in the last year of the war in Western Europe.
