Red white papers
The Red White Books are a German-language book series from the first half of the 1950s. The series was published in Cologne by the publishers Rote Weissbucher and Kiepenheuer & Witsch (in Komm.) As a forum for documentaries from the Soviet-influenced countries. A total of around 20 titles were published. For example, the memories of ten years of imprisonment, camp and exile in Siberia of Anté Ciliga (1898–1992), the Yugoslav communist politician who came to the Soviet Union as a high functionary, but fell out of favor after a few years, appeared in it. For example, a depiction of the Soviet military administration in Germany was published by the Rote Weissbücher publishing house under the title Berliner Kreml by Grigori Klimow , an employee of Marshal Zhukov who fled to West Germany in 1947.
