Robert Conquest Reihenfolge der Bücher

When The Great Terror was first published in 1968, it was universally acclaimed as one of the most important books ever written about the Soviet Union. Now, in this revised and updated edition, Robert Conquest uses fresh and dramatic material, which has only recently become available, to give further depth and breadth to his history of the momentous years between 1934 and 1939, when millions of people died in Stalin's purges. His reassessment of its significance confirms the Terror as one of the most tragic and far-reaching human and political issues of our time.

Rober Conquest gilt als profunder Kenner der Sowjetunion, insbesondere der Zeit des Stalinismus. In diesem Buch faßt er die Ergebnisse seiner lebenslangen Recherchen zusammen. Er wertet dabei auch die sowjetischen Dokumente und Zeugnisse aus, die seit der Ära Gorbatschows zugänglich gemacht wurden.
