The author raises once again a well studied but at the same time very disputable issue - the tragic beginning of the Great Patriotic War. Why was the Red Army with all its large force defeated in the frontier battles of 1941? The noted Russian historian tries to find the answer to this question with the help of documents of the General Staff, situation reports and dispatches, many of which appear in print for the first time.
