A powerful and revelatory history book about the bloodlands - the
lands that lie between Stalin's Russia and Hitler's Germany - where
14 million people were killed during the years 1933 - 1944. In the
middle of Europe, in the middle of the twentieth century, the Nazi
and Soviet regimes murdered fourteen million people in the
bloodlands between Berlin and Moscow. In a twelve-year-period, in
these killing fields - today's Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Western
Russia and the eastern Baltic coast - an average of more than one
million citizens were slaughtered every year, as a result of
deliberate policies unrelated to combat. In this book Timothy
Snyder offers a ground-breaking investigation into the motives and
methods of Stalin and Hitler and, using scholarly literature and
primary sources, pays special attention to the testimony of the
victims, including the letters home, the notes flung from trains,
the diaries on corpses. The result is a brilliantly researched,
profoundly humane, authoritative and original book that forces us
to re-examine one of the greatest tragedies in European history and
re-think our past.
