Solzhenitsyn

The Gulag Archipelago
by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, first published in Paris in three volumes (1973-75).
HV9713.S7104, Regenstein and Harper.

After the first volume was published, the author was arrested and exiled from the country in February 1974.

I saw the books in Powells but didn't buy. It was about $6 per copy. The author's photos on the back covers are very impressive.
