The first translation of the novel into Russian (under the title "All Quiet on the Western Front") appeared in 1928, even before the novel was published in German. This was an authorized translation by A. Kossovich and published as a separate book by the Berlin publisher Zakhar Kagansky. In 1929, this translation was reissued in Riga by Orient. This translation was never published in the USSR.
