"This Booklet, Based On Original Materials Culled From Archives In The United States And In The Russian Federation, Treats A Little Known Aspect Of Lend-Lease And Of Soviet-American Relations At The End Of The Second World War. The Author, Richard A. Russell, Has Cultivated Singularly Productive Relations With Prominent Historians, Archivists, And Naval Officers In Russia. His Tireless Efforts To Obtain Access To Russian Naval Archives And To Introduce Their Materials Into The Writing Of Recent American History Will Revise How Historians Approach Working On The Navel Aspects Of The Soviet-American Alliance In World War Ii And The Cold War At Sea."
