News Wire

Get ready for next year when we meet on the first Tuesday, January 4th in 
the Accessible World's new History Room. We will have a new name, "A JOURNEY 
THROUGH HISTORY" AND A NEW TIME and day,  THE FIRST Tuesday of the month. We 
will still be reading historical non-fiction.  However we plan to include 
Historical Fiction also.



Our next book will be "MUTINY: THE TRUE EVENTS THAT INSPIRED THE HUNT FOR 
RED OCTOBER" by David Hagberg and Boris Gindin. David Hagberg is an author 
of over fifty  mystery and suspense novels. Boris Gindin is a co-author and 
was a former Senior Lieutenant on the Soviet Sub-Chaser, Scorozhevoy during 
the mutiny. Now a US. citizen, he had remained silent for over thirty years 
out of fear of the KGB.



The book describes how Valery Sablin, the ships political officer and a 
disillusioned Marxist ideologue seized control of the ship, locking up 
Boris, the Captain and some officers and attempted to send a radio message 
to the Russian people denounceing the rampant corruption of the Soviet 
Government of Leonid  Brezhnnev . A nervous crewwman misdirected the message 
which went out only to military channels. Leonid  Brezhnnevthe ordered the 
navy to sink the Scorozhevoy along with it's crew.   Boris Gindin was there 
and an active eyewitness whose actions probably saved the lives of the 150 
crewmen.
