L'U.R.S.S.: Telle Qu'elle Est
By Yvon
Gallimard, 1938, 287 pp.

The author was a French technician and Communist who went to Russia in 1923; he worked there until 1933, when he managed to leave, thoroughly disillusioned. From his description of the Soviet industrial system one gathers that there is little liberty in Russia and that the standard of living of the average Soviet worker is low.
