A word of warning about the Black Book of Communism - it is the coldly related description of the meticulous records of the deaths of some 100,000,000 people who were slain in the name of communism or other closely related "isms" of the socialistic variety.
It is even more depressing than having to listen to a Marxist professor, the Liberal next door, or the imnates at the local asylum - because the enormity of the human suffering detailed in the Black Book of Communism is beyond depresing. Soon, the mind is numbed by it all.
By all means read it if you have any slight doubts that Reagan's "Evil Empire" line was anything but an understatement. Just be aware of what is within those somber black covers.

I need to get that some day. Here is a web site that tells the essense of the story of that failed, evil ideology, in very succinct form. I throw it in the face of Lefties regularly.
