A monograph on the Hungarian troops who carried out occupation duties across more than half a million square kilometres of the Soviet Union during the Second World War. For two years they served in the region most threatened by partisans, the forests around Bryansk, so their history cannot be told apart from the Soviet partisan war, nor from the Holocaust in Ukraine. The book reconstructs the events and also analyses them as social history, showing the brutal violence that German and Hungarian occupiers unleashed, which is still little known in Hungary.
