Serge Cipko is Assistant Director, Research, at the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, University of Alberta, and author of Ukrainians in Argentina: The Making of Community. He lives in Edmonton.
"There is no comprehensive study of the Canadian reaction to the
famine in the English or Ukrainian language, [...] so this is a
major contribution. It is an interesting story and an important one
for Canadian and Ukrainian history." -- Roman Serbyn
"[A]n important contribution." - Thomas M Prymak, author of
"Gathering a Heritage: Ukrainian, Slavonic & Ethnic Canada & the
USA"
"Cipko has assembled a rich collection of documents about the
dissemination in Canada of news about the Great Ukrainian Famine
and how Canadians reacted to this information. He has also compiled
a bibliography of historical literature on that tragedy presented
as famine, genocide and Holodomor. The work [makes] an important
contribution to the study of Canadian mainstream and ethnic
newspapers, how they handled information on foreign catastrophes,
and how the two domains of journalism interacted." - Roman Serbyn,
editor of "Famine in Ukraine, 1932-1933"
"The book is well organized, written in a lively, engaging style
that will appeal to both an academic and a popular audience."
