| Summary/Abstract |
A LOT IS KNOWN about the Great Patriotic War. However, its history is still being written as new documents are emerging from declassified archives, as well as the memoirs of its participants. There is a certain gap between classic academic research involving thoroughly checked facts, verifications, assessments, and evaluations, on the one hand, and naturally emotional publications (memoirs) devoted to specific events and written by war veterans, on the other. One such work is a book by Vasily Ivanovich Kolotusha, a well-known diplomat, Arabic studies expert, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary, entitled "Detention Camp Unknown... Place of Burial, Wlodomierz."
