Description
"In Workers' Paradise Lost, Eugene Lyons cuts through five decades of propaganda and myths to the hard core of Soviet Communist reality. . . . It should be required reading in the colleges, universities and chancelleries of the world. . . ." - Irene Corbally Kuhn, King Features Syndicate
"For 50 years, Russia has been the stage of a vast human tragedy. In this book, the Iron Curtain parts and the drama unfolds act by act: the Bolshevik seizure of power, the planned society, the purges and persecutions, the famines and Siberian camps, the rise of a new aristocracy. Workers' Paradise Lost is a drama of horror unequaled in history, but it is also a tribute to the quality and heroism of the Russian peoples." - The Reader's Digest
"An excellent antidote to official Soviet propaganda." - Sydney Hook, Chairman of the Philosophy Department, New York University
