Yet for many years Zhukov was relegated to the status of "unperson" in his homeland. Now, following glasnost and the fall of the Soviet Union, Zhukov is being restored to his rightful place in history. In this completely updated version of his classic 1971 biography of Zhukov, Otto Preston Chaney provides the definitive account of the man and his achievements. To provide a thorough account of Zhukov's life, Chaney draws upon a large range of historical and military sources, correcting old information with new. His most important source is Zhukov's own memoirs, which have recently been expanded to include previously censored material. 600 10 $a Zhukov, GeorgiiÌ Konstantinovich, $d 1896-1974. 600 17 $a Zhukov, GeorgiiÌ Konstantinovich, $d 1896-1974 $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00037939 600 17 $a ZÌukov, Georgij K. $2 swd 650 0 $a Marshals $z Soviet Union $v Biography. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Soviet Union. 651 0 $a Soviet Union $x History $y 1925-1953. 651 0 $a Soviet Union $x History $y 1953-1985. 650 7 $a Marshals. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01010769 651 7 $a Soviet Union. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 648 7 $a 1925-1985 $2 fast 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 941 $a 1 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508021525.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B62D993C90F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
