This is the first volume of a new integrated documentary history of
the Soviet Union. The Soviet story-the revolution, Lenin,
Stalinism, the Great Patriotic War, the era of Khrushchev, Brezhnev
and Cold War, and the dramatic collapse under Gorbachev-looms large
in history syllabuses across the world. This book will be a
valuable resource for students at all levels, drawing upon the
primary material that has come to light since the collapse of
Communist rule in 1991. Combining lucid narrative commentary and a
rich selection of evocative documents, it provides a lively entree
to current debate over humanity's most momentous and tragic
experiment. This volume is organised chronologically, subdivided
thematically and incorporates over 200 documents. Key terms and
references to individuals, places, events and institutions are
explained and guidance provided on significant features of the
primary sources. Conceived as companion to the highly-regarded,
best-selling 4- volume Nazism 1919-1945: A Documentary Reader by
Noakes & Pridham, also published by UEP, it assumes no prior
knowledge of the subject.
