The Fraud of the Dewey Commission: Leon Trotsky's Lies - Paperback

by Grover Furr (Author)

The Dewey Commission, which met in 1937 to investigate the charges made in the Moscow Trials against Leon Trotsky, has been accepted uncritically as a refutation of those charges and a convincing determination that Trotsky was "not guilty." The present book studies the Dewey Commission proceedings and conclusions in the light of documentary evidence now available and concludes that the Commission's conclusions are faulty on many grounds, among them that Trotsky deliberately and repeatedly lied to the Commission.
