Unbound. Zustand: Very Good. Lonely Handwritten Letter to a Sister from the American Hotel, Richfield Springs, NY, 1889. Single sheet, written on both sides. American Hotel letterhead. Dated October 27th, 1889. The letter begins in part, "wondering what had become of all my friends for I guess they have all forsaken me." Ouch! The author mentions he hasn't had time to visit, and suggests that his sister should visit him since she presumably has time. He asks about some other people, and basically lays on a good old fashioned guilt trip over two pages. No indication as to the name of the writer or recipient. VERY GOOD condition. Minor fading.…

The American Committee for the Liberation of the Peoples of Russia was formed in 1950 to undermine the Soviet government. It was headed by Eugene Lyons (formerly Yevgeny Natanovich Privin) the Russian born US journalist. It supported the CIA's QKACTIVE initiative, which also used Radio Liberty to broadcast propaganda into the USSR, and Radio Free Europe into its satellites. The unidentified author is described as an American who spent some years in Soviet Russia in the early years of the Revolution, where he began to study its attitude towards religious institutions, and was able to return in 1958 to confirm some of his information. He prepared this for Radio Liberty, the Voice of Former Soviet Citizens, which broadcasts to the USSR in Russian and 17 other languages from transmitters in western Europe and the Far East. He also wrote "The War Against Religion in the USSR" (1958). He describes how in the 1930s there was mass deportation of Islamic intelligentsia, of which only a few survived the labour camps, and the Mecca pilgrimage was stopped. In the 1940s, specially trained agents were sent to Islamic regions stirring doubt and dissension. Stalin needed the Muslims onside during WW2, but afterwards pressure was resumed, with propaganda circulated through the Society for the Diffusion of Scientific and Political Knowledge. He concludes that "It is evident that 40 years of intense, psychologically planned effort to eliminate Islam from the USSR have not been without effect. The sweeping changes in social life, the attacks against Islam as outmoded, unscientific and harmful to the state, all the possible forms of moral and physical pressure on believers, have evidently reduced the number of the Islamic faithful, with the major decrease among youth" (pp23-24).…
