Özet

In 1929, Stalin plunged Soviet Russia into a coercive "revolution from above", a decade-long effort to amass military-industrial power for a new war. He forced 25 million peasant families into state-run collectives and transformed the Communist Party into a servile instrument. In 1939, he concluded the pact with Hitler that enabled him to grasp at Eastern Europe while Hitler made war in the West.

This book forms the second volume of Robert C. Tucker's biography of Joseph Stalin, following Stalin as Revolutionary. The author shows that Stalin was a Bolshevik of the radical right whose revolution cast the country deep into its imperial, autocratic past.

Tucker brings a fresh analysis to these events and to the terror of the 1930s, revealing the motives and methods of what he calls the greatest murder mystery of this century.

Robert C Tucker rarely fails to get right into his subject. This is no different. Full of facts, brilliantly documented, certain not to disappoint. The background will be of course familiar but otherwise the insights offered are illuminating and second to none. It will be hard to find another better account of Stalins wartime experience. What fascinated me most was his relentless persecution of those closest to him, and their families, yet throughout all this he maintained such undying loyalty. The narrator grated on me to start with but I soon got over that, or too engrossed to notice. Tucker goes from strength to strength and I am sure the stream of newly released archives helps all historians interested in the era. Tucker exceeds however while many fall by the wayside. A must read for those into the characters and period of time, knowledge of which will never be complete without this work of such magnitude.

I was absolutely glued to this even though it's my 6th book about Stalin. Great book and amazing work by the narrator. Going to get the prequel right now.
