The book of the famous publicist L.A. Bezymensky examines the sharp struggle of two lines of American politics during the Second World War: the line of support for the anti-Hitler coalition and the line on anti-communist collusion, on the exhaustion of the USSR. While the West delayed the opening of the second front, there was a secret front - namely, the front of behind-the-scenes negotiations between representatives of the United States and Nazi Germany, actually directed against the Soviet Union. The book is based on documents, including little known ones.
