Zustand: new. Pages: 496 Language: English. Book In English A historic photographic record of the Soviet Gulag and its legacy. The Gulag was a network of labor camps and penal colonies run by the Soviet security organizations. While forced labor and internal exile had a long history in Russia, the Gulag evolved into a devastating tool of political suppression and massive industrial production. From the early years of the Revolution to the final years of the USSR, millions labored and perished within this system. Gulag covers the history of the Gulag with incredible essays and firsthand narratives by former prisoners. The text is accompanied by photographs provided by the prisoners, survivor groups and state archives as well as contemporary photographs that show the camps as they look now. Each chapter covers a key camp or work project of the Soviet penal-industrial complex: Solovki, the monastery that was the birthplace of the Gulag system The White Sea Canal Vaigach, the doomed humane camp The Theater in the Gulag Kolyma, the deadly Siberian gold rush Vorkuta, coal mining above the Arctic Circle The Railroad of Death Each chapter has: A concise introductory essay Formerly banned and previously unpublished archival photographs Detailed chronology of the camp Prisoners' accounts of life and death in the camps and colonies Contemporary photographs Accounts of survivors some of whom still live near their former camp or colony. Gulag is a remarkable pictorial history of a harrowing era of the twentieth century. 9781552979648.

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and includes a detailed chronology of the camp, personal accounts of the survivors and formerly banned and previously unpublished archival photographs."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.
