Russian Book Series?

[George Lepre]

Hi all -

I recently visited the German Historical Institute in Russia website. As many of you know, this institute is digitalizing German documents that had been captured during the war.

As it turns out, one of the Russian scholars working there is the editor of a book series titled SSSR i graždanskaja vojna v Ispanii: 1936 – 1939 gody, or The USSR and the Civil War in Spain, 1936-1939.

Has anyone seen these books? Although some Western historians have consulted former Comintern documents regarding the Red Army's role in the war, one would hope that this series is definitive.

I was unable to find any news about such book on DHI web-site. Can you post direct link to this news?

Doing a google search with the title brings up a number of hits but this is one connected to the DHI so may be the book and scholar referenced:
Dr. Sergey Kudryashov

Under publications:

[Hrsg. der Reihe] SSSR i graždanskaja vojna v Ispanii: 1936 – 1939 gody. [Die UdSSR und der Bürgerkrieg in Spanien: 1936 – 1939]. // Vestnik Archiva Prezidenta Rossijskoj Federacii. Moskva, 2013.

That's not a book - that's a collection of Stalin's documents on SCW.
