description: The Soviet man-made famine of 1932-1933 in Ukraine claimed the lives of millions of people, yet until recently it has remained veiled in obscurity. This pioneering volume, which appeared before the publication of Robert Conquest's Harvest of Sorrow and the establishment of the US Congressional Committee on the Famine, was one of the first scholarly efforts to analyze the famine. This collection of ten essays explores the causes of the famine, the scope of population loss, sources of information about the event, the impact of the famine on Ukrainian society, and the Western response. Contributors include James Mace, Andre Liebich, Wsewolod W. Isajiw, Frank Chalk, Kurt Jonassohn, Roman Serbyn, and others.
