Martyrs of Magadan

Martyrs of Magadan by John Newton. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780955333941.

As Joseph Stalin attempted to crush the Church in the Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of the faithful were systematically convicted of fabricated crimes and banished to the gulags to undergo years of forced labour. So many lost their lives. Martyrs of Magadan reveals the stories of 15 survivors of a gulag in bleakest Siberia through their own words and with moving pictures from the camps of Kolyma. Intimate and at times brutally frank, Martyrs of Magadan is a gripping and inspiring testimony of faith, which captures truly remarkable tales of human courage and devotion to God.
