Contents/Summary

Summary
Alexander Solzhenitsyn and his loyal group 'The Invisibles' secretly collaborated to publish one of the most important books ever written: "The Gulag Archipelago" (1968). This manuscript, containing eye witness accounts and detailed reports of life in Soviet forced labor camps, revealed for the first time the horror system that had terrorized the Russian people since the days of Lenin. The "Secret Story: The Gulag Archipelago" describes the underground journey of this extraordinary work, written and read in the utmost secrecy. Once it was published in the West in 1974, it caused a major upset and global political discourse.
