Sources of Photographs and Documents. Selected Bibliography. From Wikipedia: "In 1944, when Soviet military advances reached the area, heavy fighting took place in Latvia between German and Soviet troops, which ended in another German defeat. In the course of the war, both occupying forces conscripted Latvians into their armies, in this way increasing the loss of the nation's "live resources". In 1944, part of the Latvian territory once more came under Soviet control. The Soviets immediately began to reinstate the Soviet system. After the German surrender, it became clear that Soviet forces were there to stay, and Latvian national partisans, soon joined by German collaborators, began to fight against the new occupier. Anywhere from 120, 000 to as many as 300, 000 Latvians took refuge from the Soviet army by fleeing to Germany and Sweden. Most sources count 200, 000 to 250, 000 refugees leaving Latvia, with perhaps as many as 80, 000 to 100, 000 of them recaptured by the Soviets or, during few months immediately after the end of war, returned by the West. The Soviets reoccupied the country in 1944 1945, and further deportations followed as the country was collectivised and Sovieticized. Latvia was made to adopt Soviet farming methods. Rural areas were forced into collectivisation. Since Latvia had maintained a well-developed infrastructure and educated specialists, Moscow decided to base some of the Soviet Union's most advanced manufacturing in Latvia. New industry was created in Latvia, including a major machinery factory RAF in Jelgava, electrotechnical factories in Riga, chemical factories in Daugavpils, Valmiera and Olaine and some food and oil processing plants. Latvia manufactured trains, ships, minibuses, mopeds, telephones, radios and hi-fi systems, electrical and diesel engines, textiles, furniture, clothing, bags and luggage, shoes, musical instruments, home appliances, watches, tools and equipment, aviation and agricultural equipment and long list of other goods. Latvia had its own film industry and musical records factory (LPs)." Very good. No dust jacket. Signed by author. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Seller Inventory # 69229
