The Forsaken: An American Tragedy in Stalin's Russia
評價這本書
一段被遺忘的非凡歷史 - 一個前所未聞的故事:美國人被工作和更好的生活的承諾引誘到蘇維埃俄羅斯,結果卻悲慘地結束了 1934 年,一張棒球隊的照片被拍了下來

。這兩排年輕人看起來像任何一組美國棒球運動員,除了他們球衣上的俄羅斯字樣。球員們離開了他們的祖國和大蕭條,在斯大林主義的俄羅斯尋找更好的生活,但他們將遇到悲慘的、直到現在才被遺忘的命運。四年之內,他們中的大多數人將與無數其他美國人一起被捕。有些人會被處決。其他人將被送往“勞教所”,在那裡他們將被勞動至死。這本書講述的是生命的故事——死去的被遺棄者和倖存者。

基於開創性的研究,被遺忘者講述了美國人的故事,他們的夢想在斯大林統治下的俄羅斯破滅了,他們失去了生命。

Rate this book
A remarkable piece of forgotten history- the never-before-told story of Americans lured to Soviet Russia by the promise of jobs and better lives, only to meet tragic ends

In 1934, a photograph was taken of a baseball team. These two rows of young men look like any group of American ballplayers, except perhaps for the Russian lettering on their jerseys. The players have left their homeland and the Great Depression in search of a better life in Stalinist Russia, but instead they will meet tragic and, until now, forgotten fates. Within four years, most of them will be arrested alongside untold numbers of other Americans. Some will be executed. Others will be sent to "corrective labor" camps where they will be worked to death. This book is the story of lives-the forsaken who died and those who survived.

Based on groundbreaking research, The Forsaken is the story of Americans whose dreams were shattered and lives lost in Stalinist Russia.
