The fighting at Lake Khasan began on July 29 and actively continued until August 11, 1938. The subject of the dispute was a small section of USSR territory on the Soviet-Manchurian Far Eastern border. During the active confrontation between the formations of the 39th Rifle Corps of the Red Army and the Japanese units of the Kwantung and Korean armies, the imperial troops were expelled from Soviet territory, and the territorial conflict was settled on Soviet terms. The book, which tells about the expansion of Japan in China in the 30s of the 20th century and the battles on Lake Khasan, contains 80 photographs, 20 drawings of weapons and uniforms of the warring parties and a map of the theater of military operations.
