About this book
The famine that swept Ukraine, the North Caucasus and Central Asia in 1932-1933 claimed, according to contemporary observers, the lives of between five and ten million people, most of them Ukrainians. Collected here are eighty-five British offical documents, which include firsthand reports - by diplomats, journalists, agricultural experts, as well as by the victims themselves - of that cataclysm. The collection thus furnishes evidence about the causes, course and conseuquences of one of the great politically engineered famines of the twentieth century.
