The Silent Millions: A History of the Jews in the Soviet Union by Joel Cang presents a comprehensive and deeply researched account of the Jewish experience under Soviet rule. The work chronicles centuries of Jewish life in Russia and the USSR, tracing the arc from Tsarist persecution through the Bolshevik revolution and into the repressive Soviet era. With a measured yet urgent tone, Cang details the systematic suppression of Jewish culture, religion, and identity under successive Soviet regimes, illuminating a community forced into silence by state-sanctioned anti-Semitism. Drawing on historical records and firsthand accounts, the narrative uncovers the resilience of a people denied the right to emigrate, practise their faith, or preserve their heritage. A vital work of modern Jewish and Soviet history, it stands as an important document of one of the twentieth century's most overlooked humanitarian crises.
