This book describes the fate of those Soviet citizens who were declared “enemies of the people” not because of what they had done but because who they were. This legal principal led to a holocaust that killed millions of loyal and honest Soviet citizens and incarcerated millions more in system of slave labor camps known as the Gulag. Not only did it destroy the best and the brightest, but it thwarted the development of socialist society that was supposed to have to emphasized economic justice, the rule of law and a better life.
