EDITOR S CORNER Our report on David Irving’s Uprising! (HSN no. 31-32, p. 3) produced some unexpected reactions. A distinguished reader sent us copies of reviews condemning the volume for not measuring up to scholarly standards, containing factual errors and contradictions, as well as misrepresenting witnesses. In short, a book not worthy of attention. It is not the policy of the HSN to agree or disagree with the views of authors or critics, but rather to call attention to the existence of certain publications. We do not endorse or condemn intentionally, and if it seems to some readers that we violated this selfimposed restraint, we want to hear from them. Sporadically, references to critical reviews are included in our reports to facilitate the appraisal of a publication, and we are glad to do it in this case. Potential readers of Uprising! might find the following reviews helpful: Neal Ascherson in the Observer (29 MAR 81) under the title "A bucketful of slime"; Arthur Koestler in The Sunday Times (29 MAR 81) "Shock troops of the lost revolution”; George Schopflin in the Times literary Supplement (3 APR 81) under “Revolution as melodrama”; Kai Bird with the assistance of Bill Lomax in the New Statesman (3 APR 81) under the title “Apologist for Hitler, apologist for Soviet repression: The secret policemen’s historian.” The editor wants to extend special appreciation to the following: Tama's Acze'l, Louis Buda, István Deák, Endre Halacsy, Mihály Horváth, Miklós Kontra, Paul Sujan, Marla Solomon, Robert Blumstock, Paul Body, Helen Goldsmith, Kara Ettesvold, Barnabas Racz, and William Sólyom-Fekete.
