The book offered to your attention includes a huge stratum of time in the life of our country - from 1917 to 1991. However, this is not just history. In fact, the author, relying on the richest documentary material, created something that was not before him - a unique chronicle of the Soviet criminal world. In the book "Bandits of the times of socialism" is almost the first time so detailed and detailed narrated about all the high-profile crimes committed for more than 70 years in the expanses of both the former Soviet Union and the current CIS. And this makes the edition a kind of encyclopedia. Before the reader sometimes from an unexpected side will reveal already widely known criminal cases, as well as those that for some hidden reasons in their time did not receive the proper public resonance - the robbery of the Patriarchal sacristy and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, the murder of a deputy of the Supreme Soviet and the explosion in the Mausoleum, the audacious robbery of the Yerevan Bank and the murder of a popular movie actor, the secret life of the Blilliant Mafia and the arrest of Chikatilo. Of particular interest are the pages that tell about the formation of the MUR, the emergence of the caste of thieves in the law. Among the anti-heroes of this book - the famous raiders Yakov Koshelkov and Lenka Panteleyev, false colonel Pavlenko and bandit Mitin, currency dealer Rokotov and maniac Ionesyan, falshimvomonetchik Baranov and robber brothers Tolstopiatovy. This and much more - in the new edition of the book, which you are now holding in your hands.
