If the past century will be remembered for its tragic pairing of
civilized achievement and organized destruction, at the heart of
darkness may be found Hitler, Stalin, and the systems of domination
they forged. Their lethal regimes murdered millions and fought a
massive, deadly war. Yet their dictatorships took shape within
formal constitutional structures and drew the support of the German
and Russian people. In the first major historical work to analyze
the two dictatorships together in depth, Richard Overy gives us an
absorbing study of Hitler and Stalin, ranging from their private
and public selves, their ascents to power and consolidation of
absolute rule, to their waging of massive war and creation of
far-flung empires of camps and prisons. The Nazi extermination
camps and the vast Soviet Gulag represent the two dictatorships in
their most inhuman form. Overy shows us the human and historical
roots of these evils.
