Conrad Karamazov:

"Many people are frustrated by the overwhelming amount of anti-Soviet propaganda which still lingers from the Cold War in both leftist circles and society in general.

It is for that reason I've compiled a list of 42 books, articles, videos and spreadsheets which serve to counter the one-sided histories every schoolchild in the western world is spoonfed about the subject.

Please feel free to contribute more!"
