Description: "This book draws from analysis of Isserson's works, his arrest file in the KGB archives, and interviews with his family. The bulk of this narrative deals with the flowering of his intellectual talents from 1929 through 1941. Additional chapters deal with Isserson's arrest and his remaining 35 years, 14 spent in labor camps and internal exile"--Provided by publisher.
