      This site makes excellent use of primary source documents to portray the climate of Soviet-US relations in the Cold War. Telegram cables between the govts and reports from USSR Central Committee meetings.

      I would make wide use of this site in a U.S. history class. I would be able to show my students the Soviet perspective on US activities during the Cold War, which I think would be valuable as a comparison to our historical accounts of the same events.

      As far as usability, it is a rather basic site. However it does provide a wealth of primary source documents that would be helpful for any social studies teacher.

      I use this article to introduce students to the Black Famine in Ukraine. To get them interested, I always start by reading the letter from Zina to her Uncle. It elicits quite a reaction from the students, and they are always eager to find out more. You might have to trim this down, but it is a GREAT resource!
