By Yakov Avidon
“Before that morning, I had only heard of prisons. After all, these had nothing to do with my life. But now, bewildered and numb, I was standing in a small hot room trying to keep from falling down,” author Yakov Avidon describes as he opens To All Survivors, an intense, gripping, and graphic memoir of himself-a man who was there. He didn’t seem to remember much. All he knew was that he was in some kind of prison with many beds, in blocks of eight, all welded together. Trying to remember, he looks back at the circumstances leading him to his present dilemma, beginning with his childhood and family. Jewish, he recalls fleeing from his home, when Germany invaded the country. He mentions the painful and bloody encounters, as well as many other heartbreaking and enduring exploits he and his family had to undergo while trying to stay alive. How the events unfold towards the narrator’s eventual redemption will touch the readers’ hearts. Not only an autobiography, To All Survivors also revisits a painful part of history-pre and post Soviet Union, through the author’s memories. Avidon shares his story in this compelling read in an effort to share what actually happened in the past, to settle with it once and for all, and to serve as an inspiration for others.

By Ludmila Evreinov
Ludmila Evreinov was born in St. Petersburg (then Petrograd) in August, 1917. She emigrated to France in 1922 and graduated from the French lycée. After spending some years on the stage, she came to the U.S. and had a long and rewarding business career. Widowed in 1980 and retired in 1982, Evreinov decided to study the history of Russia, something which had fascinated her late husband. Equally fluent in Russian, French, and English, she was able to immerse herself in the primary sources available in the main branch of the New York Public Library, and in particular its Slavic and Baltic Division. Hence her shock when she began to research the first Russian nineteenth-century sovereign, Alexander I (1801-25), and noticed the enormous amount of data glossed over or not even mentioned in existing works on the subject. She soon understood the reasons. Two or three generations must elapse before historians can obtain the necessary scholarly detachment. Russian pre-Communist historians were still too close to the developments, still arguing the crucial question Alexander had raised: autocracy or a constitutional regime; their colleagues of Soviet days were operating under strict orders to defame the tsarist past. Western scholars of the first half of the twentieth century relied on the data provided by these two groups; later ones trusted the judgment of their predecessors. The general direction of the resulting texts is remarkably similar, predictably; but is it correct? Evreinov chooses a different approach. While not discarding the works above, she bases her investigations on primary sources. In foreign affairs, she studies the official correspondence of the major protagonists: heads of state, ministers, generals, and other statesmen; their memoirs, if available; international conventions and treaties; and all with exact quotes for every point. No less important are her analyses of Alexander’s legislation in every field: religion, the press, serfdom, social services (including medical care for the poor), criminal justice (including the deportations to Siberia), as well as the large-scale immigration from various European countries. Quoting from hundreds and hundreds of laws, Evreinov paints a comprehensive panorama of early nineteenth-century Russia, a subject virtually ignored by Western historians.Many of the subjects are of relevance today, including the status of the various peoples who comprised the Russian Empire: the Belarussians, the Ukrainians, the Jews, the Asian and other minorities in European Russia, and the people of the Caucasus and Siberia. Succinct historical background notes introduce her analysis of the legislation. In every case she presents all the available pertinent data, thus enabling readers to form their own opinions. While the book is most scholarly, with over 2,000 reference notes, it is written in an unpretentious style which makes for easy, engrossing reading.

By Orest M. Gladky
The anthology Voices From The Past by the late Russian immigrant writer Orest M. Gladky presents a six-part collection of short stories preserving facts and thoughts about the tumultuous history of Russia—Soviet Union from 1917 to 1971.
In the first Part of this stirring collection, “In Whose Name?”, stories follow the period when the civil war engulfed the Motherland and the White Army volunteers are defending Holy Russia from the Reds.
In “The Dispossessed,” stories describe tragic times when Stalin reneges on the promise of the revolution—All land to the peasants—and launches an onslaught on peasants through forced farm collectivization and deportation of millions to Siberia.
Stories in “I Believe” tell how the Communists imposed Marxist dogma to eradicate belief in God, they close churches, kill and send clergymen to the concentration camps and conduct relentless anti-religious propaganda.
In the fourth part State secret police watchdogs relentlessly hound “The Enemies of the People” and send millions without trial to prisons and gulags.
In “The Humdrum Life in Socialist Paradise” stories capture snapshots of ordinary citizens’ days in the Socialist-Communist state and their struggle to survive under Soviet rule and Bolshevik dictatorship.
The last Part, “Behind the Iron Curtain,” tells with wry humor stories about events after World War Two, Cold War Years, and Collective Leadership in Soviet Union.

The anthology Voices From The Past by the late Russian immigrant writer Orest M. Gladky presents a six-part collection of short stories preserving facts and thoughts about the tumultuous history of Russia—Soviet Union from 1917 to 1971.
In the first Part of this stirring collection, “In Whose Name?”, stories follow the period when the civil war engulfed the Motherland and the White Army volunteers are defending Holy Russia from the Reds.
In “The Dispossessed,” stories describe tragic times when Stalin reneges on the promise of the revolution—All land to the peasants—and launches an onslaught on peasants through forced farm collectivization and deportation of millions to Siberia.
Stories in “I Believe” tell how the Communists imposed Marxist dogma to eradicate belief in God, they close churches, kill and send clergymen to the concentration camps and conduct relentless anti-religious propaganda.
In the fourth part State secret police watchdogs relentlessly hound “The Enemies of the People” and send millions without trial to prisons and gulags.
In “The Humdrum Life in Socialist Paradise” stories capture snapshots of ordinary citizens’ days in the Socialist-Communist state and their struggle to survive under Soviet rule and Bolshevik dictatorship.
The last Part, “Behind the Iron Curtain,” tells with wry humor stories about events after World War Two, Cold War Years, and Collective Leadership in Soviet Union.

By Robert W. Swanson
The time is the USSR in late September of 1963….one year after the Soviets brought the world to the edge of a nuclear catastrophe by placing long range rockets in Cuba. The Russians and Americans are on razor’s edge, engaged in a deadly arms race that history records as the Cold War. This one of a kind book is based on the true-to-life experiences of an American film maker, Robert Williams, visiting the Soviet Union in the autumn of 1963 posing as a tourist…while he actually gathers background scenes for an anti-communist documentary film. Williams narrowly escapes incarceration in a Soviet glug as his trip becomes a harrowing nightmare of murder, mystery and mayhem. The Russian Shoot takes readers behind the mysterious walls of the Kremlin, revealing a paranoid ruling society fraught with internal power struggles, political murders, sex, and dangerous international intrigues. As Williams films in Leningrad and Moscow the shortcomings of communism is graphically portrayed as never before. Devotes of espionage and the deadly turns and twists of the Cold War will find this book a must read! The fascinating events portrayed in The Russian Shoot became the basis of full length motion picture documentary entitled Freedom Mightier than Missiles. The outstanding production was personally awarded the coveted George Washington Freedom Foundation Medal by the late President Eisenhower. Inscribed on the prestigious award are the words “For Outstanding Achievement in Bringing about a Better Understanding of the American Way of Life.”
