First Printing, February 1935 Second Printing February 1935 Third Printing February 1 935 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT THE PLIMPTON PRESS NORWOOD MASS. PUBLISHERS NOTE A HE story of Professor Tchernavins escape into Finland with his wife and son who had been visiting him in the Soviet prison camp, where he was serving a sentence, has been dramatically told in Madame Tchernavins book, ft Escape from the Soviets. 3 When her book was published the reproduction of photographs of either Professor Tcher navin or his wife was considered unwise, as it might enable the GPU agents in Finland to trace them. We are fortunate to have obtained the authors permission now to reproduce photographs of himself, of his wife and of their son Audrey.
