10.29.19 - "Leon Trotsky and the Barcelona 'May Days' of 1937." Journal of Labor and Society, 2019; 1-20.  Leon Trotsky did collaborate with the Nazis and Japanese, and the Soviet and Spanish communists knew it. In fact everybody knew it except the anticommunists -- and the Trotskyists. The Soviet and Spanish communists killed Andreu Nin and probably killed Erwin Wolf and Kurt Landau. They had good reason to do so, and we have the evidence today.

You can read the Preface to my book here.. Do it! You will be surprised at how many lies and fabrications a famous scholar like Kotkin (Princeton University, Hoover Institution) is capable of -- and how it is that such lies and falsifications get circulated and believed by all-too-naive readers.
It is also available at Amazon.com, and at the Amazon online bookstores in Canada, the UK, France, Italy, and Germany. European readers don't have to pay the high shipping costs from the USA any longer!

Also available from Amazon.com.

The testimony of the defendants at the three Moscow Trials requires vetting -- check-up to determine whether we can independently verify or disprove it.

Their testimony is valid evidence. This book gives the analysis.

FD Cover07.10.18 - The Fraud of the Dewey Commission. A short book (99 pages) with all the references to primary documents and scholarship, showing that Leon Trotsky lied to the Dewey Commission in 1937, and that the Dewey Commission would never have exhonerated him if they had known the truth.

Based on archival evidence, this book reveals that Leon Trotsky lied in virtually all his writings about the Soviet Union and Stalin after the end of 1934.
His deliberate falsifications, which were designed to protect his conspoiracies within the USSR, were assumed to be his real views then and ever since.

11.06.2015 - My critique of Professor Stephen Cohen's remarks in an interview with RT.COM on November 1, 2013. Cohen retails some of the more common lies of "the anti-Stalin paradigm." He and other anticommunists "believe" them but that does not in the least mean that they are true. My critique here is based on the best evidence available and shows that Cohen is not only biased, but wrong.

The "Official Version" of the Katyn Massacre Is A Fraud!

I never thought this thorny yet fascinating historical conundrum would be solved -- until the excavations at Volodymyr-Volyns'kiy, Ukraine, came to light. Read my article and decide for yourself!

redball.gif (326 bytes)My book The Mystery of the Katyn Massacre: The Evidence, The Solution (Kettering, OH: Erythrós Press & Media LLC, 2018) has now been published. This is the only truly objective, scientific study of the Katyn Massacre. In it I reach the only possible conclusion, from the large amount of primary source evidence now available, that the Soviet Union did not murder the Polish POWs. Therefore, the German Nazis murdered them. The book is available at my publisher's website and on Amazon.com.

redball.gif (326 bytes)Here is an Open Letter to the President and Board of Trustees of Montclair State University (where I am on the faculty) asserting that I should not be able to publish my research about Katyn on my university web page.
The sad fact is that Ms Piórkowska does not know anything about the Katyn Massacre. She only thinks that she does.

02.23.2015: Refuting Lies about the German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact of August 1939: My reply to Steven M. Miner
Roger Moorhouse has written a dishonest and incompetent book on the German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact, also known as the "Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact" and, to anticommunists only, as the "Hitler-Stalin Pact."
Professor Steven M. Miner reviewed it for the H-Diplo list. Minter's review is as full of falsehoods and as anticommunist as Moorhouse's book.
Professor Geoffrey Roberts wrote an excellent reply to Miner. Miner replied with a dogmatic and anticommunist retort to Roberts.

I wrote a documted reply to Miner. It was rejected by the H-Diplo editors. I present it here, along with links to the whole discussion.

04.13.2014 - April 13 is "Katyn Memorial Day." And the "official version" of the Katyn massacre -- that "Stalin" and "the Soviets" killed the 22,000 Polish POWs -- is false, a Nazi-inspired fraud.

Jack Smith IV. "The Defamation of Grover Furr." The Montclarion, December 13, 2012. Pretty good article in the student newspaper refuting the anticommunist liars who attack my research on the Stalin period without engaging the evidence and who want me fired for "indoctinating" my students. Also here, in HTML. And here is my "Response to Comments" on this page as of December 18 2012 (mirrored here).

tukhkakmypredalibk.jpg 10.23.12 - Our essay ""Marshal S.M. Budiennyi on the Tukhachevsky Trial. Impressions of an Eye-Witness" (in Russian)", from Klio (see 03.20.12 below) is reprinted in the book M.N. Tukhachevskii: Kak My Predali Stalina ("M.N. Tukachevsky. How We Betrayed Stalin"), Moscow: Algoritm, September 2012, pages 174-230.

beriaimperiabk.jpg10.17.12 - Beria. Imperia GULAG. Book of essays by David Holloway, Donald Rayfield, and myself, on Lavrentii Beria and the legends and lies surrounding his name.

07.15.12 - My letter to the Editor of the New York Times Book Review about Witold Pilecki, Polish Nationalist spy and/or terrorist, executed by pro-Soviet Poland in 1948.
Though no longer loyal to any government Pilecki and many other members of the Aramia Krajowa carried on a guerrilla war in post-1945 Poland. The Polish communsit government executed Pilecki  while sparing all the other defendants convicted with him.

  07.12 - Review of my book Khrushchev Lied  by Ray Light. Many thanks!

07.09.12 - My contribution to "The Stalin Debate", an article on the History News Netword about a new book by super-falsifier Jörg Baberowski. It's the first "comment" under the abbreviated article from Deutsche Welle. I refer to my 2010 article "Baberowski's Falsification".

 04.18.12 - "I Protest the Appearance of Professor Timothy Snyder!" Snyder, author of Bloodlands, spoke at Kean University on April 17 2012. Snyder may be the most blatant falsifier of history now active in mainstream academia! I distributed this leaflet to all those in attendance. Frankly, even I was shocked to see how Snyder blithely mouthed lie after lie about Soviet history, propagating the historical misrepresentations of Ukrainian and Polish nationalist, anti-Semites and participants in the Holocaust.

  04.01.12 - "Learning from the Communist Movement of the 20th Century. A Response to Richard Rubin." Platypus Review #45 (April 2012). My thanks to the Platypus editors who consented to publish this essay of mine which is strongly critical of one main trend in their movement!

03.20.12 - "Marshal S.M. Budiennyi on the Tukhachevsky Trial. Impressions of an Eye-Witness" (in Russian). Klio No. 2 (2012), pp. 8-24.

This is an edition of Budiennyi's letter to Voroshilov 2 weeks after the June 12, 1937 Tukhachevsky trial (the "Tukhachevsky Affair."). This letter is still top-secret in Russia today -- presumably because it is very powerful
evidence that Tukhachevsky and the other military figures were guilty. About five years ago I found this document in the Volkogonov Archive, Library of Congress. My colleague Vladimir Bobrov and I have published it with a detailed introduction in which we discuss its history and the previous references to it (all of them wrong, some deliberately misleading).

Budiennyi, who was a member of the Military Tribunal that tried Tukhachevsky and seven other high-ranking officers associated with the Marshal's conspiracy, wrote detailed impressions about the trial in the form of a letter to Marshal Kliment Voroshilov, People's Commissar for Defense. Budiennyi's letter provides strong evidence that Tukhachevsky and the rest were guilty not only of conspiracy themselves but of conspiring with Germany against the USSR. It also provides strong evidence that Leon Trotsky conspired with Germany.

The trial transcript is still top-secret in Russia today.

03.20.12 - "The Moscow Trials and the "Great Terror" of 1937-1938: What the Evidence Shows." (Written July 2010).

Introduction to my book Antistalinskaia podlost' - in English, Khrushchev Lied! -- translated into Vietnamese.

  • Just last week (10.30.10) I was contacted by a major Hanoi publishing house that wants to bring out a Vietnamese-language edition of my book. Maybe this is page is what got them interested?

New edition of my book on Khrushchev's "Secret Speech" is published. New title: "Shadows of the 20th Party Congress". Moscow Books; Ozon.ru; Kniga.com in Brooklyn; the publisher's (Eksmo) page.

07.02.10 - Arabic translation of "The Sixty-One Untruths of Nikita Khrushchev", Literaturnaia Rossiia June 13, 2008. Many thanks to Mr Yeheskel Kojaman - "shukran jazeelan!"

07.02.10 - My page on the "Katyn Massacre Affair" is updated to include the dramatic new developments since February 2010 that tend to cast doubt upon the "mainstream" anticommunist position that "the Soviets shot all the Poles." Same page mirrored here.

06.04.10 - Norwegian translation of "The Sixty-One Untruths of Nikita Khrushchev" , Literaturnaia Rossiia June 13, 2008. (for original and other languages see below). Thanks to Tjen Folket Kommunistisk Forbund!

06.01.10 - "Anatomy of a Lie: The Death of Oliver Law" published in The Volunteer, journal of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archive. This is an abbreviated version of my longer and more fully documented study published in Reconstruction vol. 8, No. 1, February 2008 and noted below.

05.11.10 - Response to Mahir Ali, "The Ghosts of Triumphs and Tragedies Past", Dawn (Pakistan). Mahir Ali is some kind of Trotskyist "cultist".. But many honest people believe the falsehoods Ali repeats, so this may be of some interest.

04.03.10 - "Evidence of Leon Trotsky's Collaboration with Germany and Japan." In Cultural Logic for 2009. On the evidence there's no doubt that Trotsky conspired with the Germans and Japanese as alleged during the second and third Moscow Trials of January 1937 and March 1938.

NOTE: Or, you may access this article here, at the Internet Achive.

01.18.10 - Furr and Bobrov, "Bukharin's Last Plea: Yet Another Anti-Stalin Falsifiication." In this article we trace the story of a note supposedly found in Stalin's desk after his death in which Bukharin supposedly wrote: "Koba, why is my death necessary for you?"

We prove that this and a couple of related stories, which originate with Roy Medvedev, are fabrications -- in plain English, falsehoods. (For the "canonical", i.e. unquestioned and completely mendacious version of this story see, for example, Robert Service, Stalin. A Biography. Cambridge: Belknap Press 2005, p. 592. We quote this in the article itself.)

The Russian version of this article was published in February 2009 in the Russian language online history journal "Aktual'naia Istoriia" ("Current History", Home Page http://actualhistory.ru/ ). It has since been reprinted here (in Russian), on the "Stalinism.ru" webpage. In addition, the Russian editors of this online journal inserted some good graphics! All in all, a creditable job of publishing.

01.15.10 - "Baberowski's Falsification" is a short article I wrote about the dishonesty of a leading German anticommunist researcher on the Stalin period in the USSR. Joerg Baberowski is a professor at Humboldt University in Berlin publishes widely in both academic and popular media.
Falsifications like the one I point out here would get a US professor disciplined, or at least publically embarrassed -- if writing about, say, American history. But in Soviet history, "anything goes" as long as it's anticommunist. Thanks once again to Patrice Greanville, editor and publisher of Cyrano's Journal, for publishing it.
It's also available here, on my own site. Or just copy and paste www.tinyurl.com/baberowski into your browser's window!
04.24.12 - The article is still there, but the link doesn't work! I don't know why, but if you copy and paste this URL - http://www.cjournal.info/2010/01/11/baberowski's-falsification/ - into your browser window, you'd get the article. Or, just go to the version on my own Home Page (above).

My article in The Montclarion of December 3, 2009 on cutbacks as strategy to lower real wages.

11.20.09 - "Alternative Versions of the Katyn Shooting" (Russian). This is a much more objective account than the super-anticommunist main page. There's also an older "alternative" account that was originally on the Russian Wikipedia site.. It was removed -- censored by the Russian language Wikipedia. It's more than a year old now and so out of date. I don't like censorship, so here it is.

I read an earlier version of this paper at the summer 2009 institute of the Marxist Literary Group at Portland State University. Many thanks to Cyrano's editors!

(NOTE: This article is more complete than my older (2007-2008) article "Sense and Nonsense About the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact of 1939", so I have removed the link to this older article.]

05.09.09 - "HISTORY REVISITED: The truth about the death of Oliver Law", in Cyrano's Journal Online for May 9 2009.

05.09.09 - Tomsk State Pedagogical University has put my book on its list of "Supplementary Readings" for its degree candidates in Russian History! There are five "required" readings, all textbooks. Of the 53 "supplementary readings" there are only five by non-Russians: three by Italians and two by Americans, of which I'm one.

  A very positive review of my book on a Russian-language history blog! Thanks to "aberrationist" for this incisive, critical, and supportive review. Spasibo, 'Aberrationist'!

Refutation of yet another anticommunist lie by Ludwik Kowalski. A retired physicist, Kowalski knows fluent Russian but chooses to repeat any anti-Stalin lies he finds rather than do any research, though he knows very well how to do it.

"Mikhail Kol'tsov and the Evidence". A post to the ALBA (Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives) list of November 5, 2008. An anticommunist reviewer at The Economist shows no interest in the evidence or the truth.

Furr and Bobrov, "Nikolai Bukharin's First Statement of Confession in the Lubianka" in English translation, in the 2007 issue of Cultural Logic. This is an excellent issue of an important American Marxist journal and we're proud to be in it. (See below for the Russian original published in March '07.)

NOTE: Or you may access this article here, at the Internet Achive.

Somebody created a Wikipedia page on me. That's wikipedia.ru, the Russian version. They got a few things wrong, so I made the corrections.
(My thanks to my Moscow colleague and fellow researcher Vladimir L. Bobrov, who informed me 06.30.08). Wikipedia.ru uses Cyrillic letters in the filename part of the URL. If you can't get to this page, let me know and I'll correct it.

"The Sixty-One Untruths of Nikita Khrushchev" -- Interview of me by Literaturnaia Rossiia, issue No. 24 for June 13, 2008. Also available here (PDF) 

This is a weekly writers' publication. It used to be put out by the Moscow branch of the Soviet Writers' Union, and is now independent. According to its own webpage, it has a print circulation of 19,650. Let's hope every one of them buys a copy of my book! Many, many thanks to my wonderful colleague Vladimir L. Bobrov of Moscow for arranging this!

Russian translation of my 1988 article "New Light On Old Stories About Marshal Tukhachevskii: Some Documents Reconsidered" by my colleague Vladimir L. Bobrov.

"Some Remarks On Yet Another Anticommunist Article Concerning Communist Solidarity With The Spanish Republic In The Spanish Civil War." My brief outline of the "Stalin problem" in studies of the Spanish Civil War. First posted to the H-HOAC list on April 7 '08.

A very positive Review of my book Antistalinskaia Podlost' by historian Sergei Semanov in the journal Russkii Vestnik March 13, 2008. (Echoed at my publisher's website here). And here's another version of the same review, a bit longer, by Semanov in the journal Slovo of April 4 2008.

Semanov is a prolific historian born in 1934, journal editor, has worked with the Institute of History of the Academy of Sciences (Soviet), now associated with the Institue of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences. A list of more than a dozen of his works of history now in print is available here, at the site of Ozon.ru, a major Russian online bookstore.

"Anatomy of an Anticommunist Fabrication: The Death of Oliver Law, An Historiographical Investigation." In Reconstruction 8.1. (Published March 19, 2008.)

Oliver Law was, for four days in July 1937, commander of the Lincoln Battalion and the first black man to command white American troops. He died as a hero in battle, shot while leading a charge against the fascist forces on July 9, 1937. The essay examines how the late William Herrick fabricated a false story -- really, a couple of them -- about the death of Oliver Law, and how others, especially Cecil Eby, have abetted the falsification. It is a case study in historical falsification for anticommunist purposes.

Review of Cecil Eby, Comrades and Commissars. The Lincoln Battalion in the Spanish Civil War. Published in The Volunteer. Journal of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. Vol.XXIV, No. 4 (December 2007), p. 19. Also in HTML here.

Home page for my book, Antistalinskaia Podlost' -- roughly, "Anti-Stalinist Villany" --  published by "Algoritm" publishers in Moscow, in Russian.

The publisher insisted on the title, which echoes that of a book published a few years back that sold very well. The English title -- mine --  is:
"Khrushchev Lied: The Evidence That Every "Revelation" of Stalin's (and Beria's) "Crimes" in Nikita Khrushchev's Infamous "Secret Speech" to the 20th Party Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union on February 25, 1956, is Provably False. *
There's a link at the bottom of the page for interested readers to download an analytical chapter omitted from the published version. Or, just go here.


05.11.08 - My book now scanned and PDF'd on the web. I don't know who did it! But it must be a compliment. And, it has the potential to spread the book more widely, so Spasibo, tovarishch, whoever you are. In ZIP format.

04.16.08 - The final chapter from the book, put on the web by the publisher (PDF format, in Russian - for HTML, see a few lines above).

Humble thanks to my colleague, editor and translator Vladimir Bobrov of Moscow, without whom I would never have undertaken, much less completed, this job!

(* Except one minor one, which I can neither verify nor disprove.)

  Page from Russian reader's blog of Feb. 18, 2008, praising my book. Mr Pokrovsky says he emailed me to thank me, and he did! A fine guy -- thanks, Mr. Pokrovsky!

07.15.2008 - A fine recommendation for my book in an article by Leonid Zhura in IUrii Mukhin's journal Duel':

"One does not require archival research in order to refute the slanders of the illiterate Khrushchev at the 20th Party Congress concerning the supposed 'cult of personality of Stalin' and 'unfounded repressions' ... Grover Furr, in his book 'Antistalinskaia Podlost'', has exposed this personage especially well."

05.17.2008 -   A nice compliment for my book on a Russian discussion blog:

"Slava, did you get the book by Grover Furr, "Antistalinskaia podlost'"?
Yes, Lionia. It's a good book... I did not expect that from a foreign author."


January 10 2008: Accuracy in Academia names me "Scholar of the Year"!
What they really mean is "worst scholar of the year." But what that means is: They disagree with me. Yes, "conservatives" do not care about the truth. They only care whether you "promote their 'party line'".
Though conservatives attack Postmodernists for denying objective reality, the conservatives themselves pretend it doesn't exist. Of course -- because reality is very different from what they say it is! So I really am honored they think me the "worst". (Also here, as a PDF file).

  • February '08 - AinA puts me on pages one and five of their February newsletter. Download it here, or here.


Horowitz-Stalin Controversy, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review March - May 2006.
David Horowitz isn't interested in the truth, and neither are his defenders. This exchange in Richard Mellon Scaife's conservative newspaper demonstrates this. (For more detail about how this happened, see "Academic Repression in the First Person", also linked below).

Furr and Bobrov, "Pervye priznatel'nye pokazaniia N.I. Bukharina na Lubianke." Klio No. 1 (2007). Introductory article to our publication of Nikolai Bukharin's previously unpublished confession of June 2, 1937.

Furr and Bobrov, eds. "Lichnye pokazaniia N. Bukharina." Klio (St. Petersburg), No. 1 (2007). Nikolai Bukharin's first confession, of June 2, 1937. Never before published and still unavailable to scholars in Russia.

Remarks on the Moscow Trials, on Evidence, and Objectivity. I wrote this in June 2006 to answer inaccurate criticisms by a young radical who has, however, been influenced by Cold War anticommunist falsehoods. Since we have all been so influenced, to one degree or another, I think it may be useful to others.

Interview of me by Carl Miller, plus a few other things of mine (I think...) translated into Japanese! (English interview also here, at this Spanish site).

Exchange on the Katyn Massacre evidence. Mr. Sergey Romanov put our email exchange online despite the fact I refused to give him permission to do so. Well, there it is! So I will make the best of it and put a link here. Maybe Romanov is right, and the exchange "makes me look bad"? You be the judge!

  • Mr Romanov refers to a page I wrote on Katyn to help people who ask me for something short about it. I changed the URL when I edited it; this is the new one.

"Did George Washington Turn Down An Offer To Be A King? The Story Behind the Myth." A student in one of my classes mentioned this story. I told her I'd never verified it, and set out to do so. Here's the result (March 2007)

A Masters Thesis in History by one Jason Foster, accepted at Texas Tech U. in August 2006, contains lies about an essay of mine on the Vietnam War. Here is my reply: "A Critique of Jason Everitt Foster's Thoroughly Dishonest Comments on an Essay by Grover Furr." (February 2007)

The Editors of the CUNY Graduate Center Advocate invited me to write an article on Academic Freedom and David Horowitz's stupid attack on me and others. I wrote  "Academic Repression in the First Person: Lies, Damn Lies, and David Horowitz" for their November 2006 issue. Thanks, people! (Here in PDF)

"Stalin and Support for the Spanish Republic." Letter to The Volunteer, March 2005, with response by Prof. Gabriel Jackson.

"Communism and Anti-Semitism -- A Rejoinder." This email of mine to several mailing lists was reprinted by Revolutionary Democracy, a communist journal in India, and in part in Challenge and Desafio (August 16, 2006) of the Progressive Labor Party (USA).

A short essay of mine about my research on Stalin is in an Interview on Carl Miller's blog, "Reason In Revolt Now Thunders,"  May 12 2006. My thanks to Mr. Miller for giving me this opportunity to state things as I seen them! (Look down the page for "Interview with Grover Furr," May 12). Also here; and here, at a Spanish site.

Horowitz's Lies About Me. Some of my friends asked me to detail Horowitz's specific lies about me in his book, so I've done so briefly here.

Il'ya Erenburg, "Answer to a Letter", in Russian original and English translation, transcribed and with an introduction by Grover Furr (PDF).
Originally published in Pravda, September 21 1948, this is the famous Soviet Jewish writer's criticism of Zionism. I have written an introduction, transcribed the Russian text from the original in Pravda, and also provide an English translation from the American Communist magazine Jewish Life, June 1949, pp. 25-27.

April 26, 2004: What Can We Learn from the Teens? Protest, Rebellion, Commitment: Then and Now, published in Counterpunch today. I wrote this paper for, and delivered it at, a panel at the 2003 MLA Convention sponsored by the Radical Caucus of the MLA. Counterpunch did not publish the notes and bibliography, so here they are.

November 10, 2001: An article of mine on the criminal war against Afghanistan from the student newspaper, The Montclarion. Also in Counterpunch, the on-line muckraking journal.
