Focusing on the Soviet economy during wartime, the book analyzes statistical records to assess changes in GNP, employment, and the defense burden, alongside foreign aid's impact. By comparing the Soviet experience with other major powers, it highlights significant costs and capital losses due to the war, which adversely affected GNP long after 1945. Utilizing previously inaccessible official documents, the author offers fresh insights into the scale of the Soviet war effort and its enduring economic repercussions.
