It explores daily life in such totalitarian dictatorships as Nazi Germany, Stalins Soviet Union, China under Mao, and North Korea. Two-thirds of the publication (200 entries) focus on compelling personal histories detailing the experiences of individuals in these regimes. The personal experiences are conveyed in such first-hand accounts as memoirs, autobiographies, diaries, and letters. An additional 100 entries interwoven throughout the three volumes further elucidate daily life in totalitarian regimes by exploring works of fiction dedicated to the topic. Perspectives from both the rulers and the ruled, from different age groups and occupations, are represented to give an understanding of the social, cultural, political, and economic conditions. The scholarly advisory board brings multiple disciplines, including history, literature, European and Asian languages, to assure thorough treatment that goes beyond the Cold War perspective during which the term totalitarian came into vogue. The attractive design features some 250 images and 50 maps and graphics. 01\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Riggs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1558629270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781558629271\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. James Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 8.70w x 3.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2016\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomas Riggs","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48459535941887,"sku":"9781558629271","price":716.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_728c7530-3d5c-478b-b75b-35326fc082e2.jpg?v=1777410294","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/histories-of-everyday-life-in-thomas-riggs-9781558629271","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
