AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"Up till now there has been no one book to which the general reader could turn for a comprehensive and fully documented study of what the Purges involved. [This] is just such a work, impressive alike in its narrative sweep, its meticulous scholarship and the clarity with which Mr. Conquest has organised and presented an immense mass of highly complex material. At every stage he cites chapter and verse, and he assesses the value of his sources with exceptional care...The author is, in short, as far as a layman can judge, the complete master of his subject, but at no point is the book allowed to sag under the weight of its scholarship: the style throughout is crisp, civilised and restrained...Mr. Conquest leaves us to draw our own political conclusions."Conquest, Robert is the author of 'Great Terror A Reassessment', published 1991 under ISBN 9780195071320 and ISBN 0195071328.
