Of interest to students of journalism, eastern-European history, and political studies, this book provides a fascinating insight about one of the most devastating events of the 20th century and the social, economic, and political factors that contributed to the famine.A fluent Russian speaker, Jones travelled as a foreign affairs adviser to David Lloyd George and Ivy Lee, two of the most influential people at that time.

Gareth Jones's numerous articles, published in the UK (Evening Standard, Daily Express, and Western Mail), as well as those written about him in the US (New York Evening News and Chicago Daily News), exposed the Holodomor, but Jones's credibility and integrity were immediately attacked and denigrated by the Soviet government and its sympathizers within the journalistic profession, including Walter Duranty of the New York Times.[Subject: Biography, History, Media Studies, Soviet Studies, Genocide Studies]We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
