Stalin: Triumph and Tragedy

• Used Book in Good Condition

Part Two Of Two Parts <P>History will probably judge that Stalin was one of the truly dominant figures of the twentieth century. While the elements of Stalin's life are well known, this is the first major study of him from a Soviet author. Taking advantage of the author's position as historian for the Soviet Army, it is researched from myriad archives and interviews never previously available, leading to revelations not hinted at previously. Written and translated with a clarity, humanity and sense of drama that would make it a famous and memorable biography of any subject in any language at any time, this comprehensive life answers questions that have perplexed the world ever since "Stalin" and Stalinism" became household words. <P>"A powerful account that adds great depth to the widely known outline of Stalin's crimes."
