Canada: Firefly Books, 2004. Book. Illus. by Kizny, Tomasz. Very Good. Hardcover. Reprint. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. 496 pages. Glossary. Index. Over five hundred black and white photos. A chilling historical photographic record of the Soviet Gulag and its legacy. "Kizny spent more than fifteen years researching this work by collecting eyewitness accounts from former Polish prisoners who had returned to their country after Stalin's death. The collapse of the Soviet Union allowed him to see for himself what remained of the dreaded Gulag, take photos and interview witnesses. Each chapter covers a key camp or work project and includes a detailed chronology of the camp, personal accounts of the survivors and formerly banned and previously unpublished archival photographs." - dust jacket. Clean and unmarked with very light wear. Dust jacket preserved in mylar. Minor tape repair and slight loss to bottom corner of page 359, otherwise a high-quality copy of this massive, important and sobering tome. Lest we forget..
