5.0 out of 5 stars
Top-class study of Ceausescu's abominations,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ceausescu and the Securitate: Coercion and Dissent in Romania, 1965-1989 (Hardcover)
This is in my view the most authoritative study of the Ceausescu system to have been published since the dictator's execution in 1989. Very well written and quite fascinating. It puts more sensationalist and hastily produced works to shame.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Personal and academic perspective on Romania's History,
By
This review is from: Ceausescu and the Securitate: Coercion and Dissent in Romania, 1965-1989 (Hardcover)
Probabaly what drew me to the book was the knowledge that Deletant had a long association with the regime of Ceasuescu and a strong academic understanding of the system. He writes with personal candour and an eye for a good story. He also has the ability to bring large numbers of facts together with consummate ease. Probably the best researched volume on the subject.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Extensively researched work on Communist Romania,
By
This review is from: Ceausescu and the Securitate: Coercion and Dissent in Romania, 1965-1989 (Hardcover)
This British author speaks fluent Romanian, married a Romanian wife, and lived in Communist Romania. The result is well-researched history, supplemented by personal experience (such as his attempts to get an emigration permit for his wife).
