Suppression of the truth and the rise of propaganda. Refugees, killing squads, and gulags. Intentionally created chaos, destruction, famine, persecution -- and mass death. These are the dark fruits of communism.

This masterful study of international communism reveals the whole mighty drama of global socialism and Marxism from its pre-Bolshevik origins through the establishment of a communist empire that dominated one- third of the world's population until the stunning defeat of the Soviet Union in 1991.

In these cautionary pages, the Red Terror and its horrors are exposed -- through the words and actions of the revolutionaries themselves. It is juxtaposed with the prophetic messages of Our Lady of Fátima and the witness of heroic Christian leaders, including thousands of priests, religious, and laity who were persecuted, tortured, and martyred for the "crime" of fidelity to the truths of the natural law.

Although narrated like a novel, this landmark work is exhaustively documented and unveils the diabolical intent behind communist ideals. You will take a deep dive into the minds and hearts of key players from Rasputin, Lenin, and Trotsky to Mao Tse-tung, Stalin, and Ho Chi Minh. Also highlighted are those who sounded the alarm against communism, including Winston Churchill, Ngo Dinh Diem, and St. John Paul II.

This comprehensive work takes you through pivotal places and events from the Paris Commune to "Blood Sunday," from the Peasants' Revolt to the "anti-religion five-year plan." You will be shocked by the forgotten "liquidation" of those who opposed the communist regime in Russia and the deliberate genocidal starvation of millions of Ukrainian peasants. Moreover, you will be amazed by movements from the Long March in China to Freedom Fighters in Nicaragua. In these timely, eye-opening pages, you will learn:

• Which Christian persecution was the bloodiest since Diocletian in Rome (Do you know?)
• What apostasy led to the rise of communism
• The three total revolutions in history (Can you name them?)
• The man-made apocalypse that was the precursor to the Bolshevik revolution
• The weapon that toppled the Wall and communism in Eastern Europe (Remember it!)

Amid seemingly hopeless situations, the light of truth and victory overcame the darkness. You will be profoundly moved as you perceive how swiftly freedom can be lost and what we must do to preserve it as communism rises again in our time.
