Not found in OCLC. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book tells the story of one of the most celebrated work units in USSR in the 1930s - the all-female tractor brigade, founded and led by Pasha Angelina (1913-1959). Born in 1913 in the village of Starobeshevo in the Donbass, Pasha gained her tractor licence at 16 and headed the first female brigade by 20, famously making the call 'One hundred thousand girlfriends - to the tractor!'. Angelina was a true Soviet celebrity and no less famous than Alexey Stakhanov, her face often appearing in newspapers and magazines. Although the narrative appears to have the usual Soviet propaganda of the 1930s, there are still some interesting details about the lives of women working in kolkhozes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst edition, 16mo; illustrations in the text and photographic prints on separate leaves, text in Ukrainian, with the original red insert of the two red orders of the brigade awarded; original maroon cloth with photographic portrait pasted to upper cover and title blindstamped, ink number inscribed to upper corner, covers a little worn, a very good copy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"HOLUBEV, M.O.; HURZHI, S.H; VIRNYKIV, I.S.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57039265235319,"sku":"120904","price":3105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/4694\/1233\/files\/120904.jpg?v=1777236702","url":"https:\/\/shapero.com\/en-us\/products\/120904","provider":"Shapero Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
