Features: Based on a wealth of documentary evidence and firsthand accounts, Yemelianov unravels the mysteries surrounding Stalin's life and career. Stripping away the historical froth of the successive deification and demonization campaigns surrounding Stalin, he presents us with a real Stalin. Why did Ordzhonikidze commit suicide? Why was Kirov assassinated? What were the true reasons behind the Soviet internal political struggles of the 1930s? What role did Stalin play in the Soviet leadership during and after the Great Patriotic War? The real answers to all these questions can be found in this book. This is the second part of a two-volume work on Stalin.
