Progress Publishers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Progress Publishers was a Moscow-based Soviet publisher. Founded in 1931, it was noted for its English-language editions of books on Marxist and Leninist theory. The Progress Publishers were specially famous for their "Short History of USSR" and ABC series (ABC of Party, ABC of Socialism, ABC of Dialectical Materialism, etc.). They also published many scientific, arts, political books, classic books, children's literature, books in source language for people studying foreign languages, guidebooks and photographic albums.
One of the common features of all Progress books was their "request to reader" to send an opinion and suggestions on the book.
