Condition remarks:
Good overall condition, with the majority of volumes clean, square, and tightly bound; a small number of issues carry minor penned markings to covers and a few spines show light bruising, but these are minor defects in an otherwise solid and highly presentable set. Volume 26 missing oct-dec 1958.
A near-complete run of 72 issues of "Survey: A Journal of Soviet and East European Studies," spanning from Volume 24 (August 1958) through Volume 23, No. 3 (Volume 104; 1978), this authoritative Cold War periodical edited by Walter Laqueur and Leo Labedz under the auspices of the Congress for Cultural Freedom documents the full arc of Soviet political and cultural life across a quarter century, publishing landmark contributions on the post-Stalin thaw, the Hungarian uprising, Pasternak and Solzhenitsyn, the Prague Spring, détente, and the slow unravelling of Soviet ideology, drawing on the most distinguished Western and émigré scholars of the era to deliver rigorous, firsthand analysis of a world largely closed to outside scrutiny.
