Bound in original publisher's grey cloth boards blind-stamped design, blue lettering to spine and upper board. Book details: A seminal eyewitness account of Stalin's Soviet Union by journalist Eugene Lyons (1898-1985), who served as United Press correspondent in Moscow from 1928-1934. Initially sympathetic to the Revolution, Lyons documents his disillusionment amid the First Five-Year Plan, collectivization, show trials, censorship, and famine. This anti-totalitarian classic influenced George Orwell's 1984 (notably the phrase "Two Plus Two Equals Five" from Lyons' chapter). Scarce British edition, issued concurrently with the American Harcourt, Brace first. A solid, attractive copy suitable for collectors.
