"The appearance of this great book -- which mostly relies on the Communists' own figures -- demolished forever the notion that Communism was not the equal of Nazism in sowing misery, cruelty, wickedness and privation."
"Not the easiest read, but it confirms that the billions spent to oppose Communism globally were well worth it. Alleged intellectuals who differentiate Communism in theory from its real-world practice everywhere, or who believe there was any moral equivalence between the West and Communism can no longer pretend they have a leg to stand on."
