A New Testimony about the Soviet Factor in the 1968 Czechoslovakia Events: The Memoirs of General A.M. Maiorov

Summary/Abstract: Thirty years after the Prague Spring, the comprehensive bibliography devoted to that event was rounded off with a large number of works in different languages. Accounts by the participants hold a quite important place in the literature on the events in Czechoslovakia. Unlike the memoirs of the active Prague Spring players - Zdenek Mlinar and Otta Sik - Gen. A.M. Maiorov’s book is written by a man who in those days played an altogether different role, contradictory in many respects. As head of the 38th Army in August 1968, he was one of the main performers of the military invasion of Czechoslovakia, and in October the same year he was appointed first commander of the newly-created Central Army Group which had to be sent repeatedly to that Central European country.
