The non-fiction book, "Life Under Tyranny" provides historical information about life under a tyrannical government. Newly available released documents from Ukrainian Archives in Odessa, Ukraine, detail the atrocities Soviet leaders Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin perpetrated on ethnic Germans living in Ukraine, covering the years from the Russian Revolution to the beginning of World War II. Goldade, with the assistance of associates in Odessa, Ukraine, has retrieved numerous documents from Ukrainian archives covering this dark era. Peter Goldade's Life Under Tyranny sheds new light on Soviet confiscation of property, deprivations inflicted, and the kangaroo courts that sentenced untold numbers of people to prison, hard labor, gulags—or execution.
