Kirkus Review: The story of fifteen years newspaper experience in Russia affords the opportunity for a keen survey of crucial years from the outside looking in and the inside looking out. And with the man having that experience a man of the calibre of Walter Duranty, the result was bound to be good reading -- but I had not expected it to be so fresh and vigorous and enlightening. No twice told tale, this, but a keenly human story, with a philosophical approach, a spice of humor, and a balanced approach to the Russian problems. A book for the Personal History market, though don't sell it as straight autobiography, as that phase of it is secondary. Should be a "must book" for anyone interested in Russia.
Walter Duranty (25 May 1884 – 3 October 1957) was an Anglo-American journalist who served as Moscow bureau chief of The New York Times for fourteen years (1922–1936) following the Bolshevik victory in the Russian Civil War (1918–1921).
