Both distinguished editors preserved accuracy and objectivity, overcoming the inaccuracies, distortions, and gaps that plagued scholarship about Ukraine in Soviet- ruled Ukraine and throughout the world. Under Professor Struk, the decision was made to publish the final three volumes simultaneously. As a result, the contributors have been able to incorporate information about the rapid changes taking place in Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union in all three remaining volumes. First, however, a comprehensive name index will be prepared and published in a separate volume, within the next two years. The CFUS , under the leadership of its president, C. Stodilka, has agreed with CIUS , under the director Z. Kohut , to continue financing this important endeavor.
Funding is difficult and contributions from the public are welcome.
Tax receipts will be provided. Pages have top gilding, while spine, front covers, and slip- cases are stamped in foil. The books have special head and tail bands.
