The book contains six resolutions the XIX congress made on the main subjects discussed. Needless to say, each resolution was accepted unanimously.

The word "Bolsheviks" was no longer pertinent since any other factions, e.g., the Mensheviks or the Socialist Revolutionaries, had been long-abolished, many of their members rotting in GULAG or executed.

In excellent condition, showing just mild storage wear to the cover. It does not look like this book has ever been read or even opened.
