darker corners of the Soviet forced labour system, and it will be
of interest both to those studying the Gulag and to maritime
historians in general.?-International Journal of Maritime
History

has written a valuable book on the maritime transportation system

the Kolyma prison camps. In clear and concise prose, he describes

Siberia with forced labor, but also how the European and US
governments acquiesced in this slave trade and actually built or
refurbished many of the ships in Stalin's fleet....Highly
recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.?-Choice
