Drawing on a wealth of unexplored material - available for the
first time since the collapse of the former Soviet Union - Robert
Service's biography of Stalin is the most authoritative yet
published. It concentrates not simply on Stalin as dedicated
bureaucrat or serial political killer, but on a fuller assessment
of his formative interactions in Georgia, his youthful
revolutionary activism, his relationship with Lenin, with his
family, and with his party members. 'This is effectively the first
full biography since perestroika to encompass the economic,
political, diplomatic, military, administrative and, above all,
ideological dimensions, as well as the personal aspects of Stalin's
colossal life . . . Gritty and unshowy, but enlightened by
Service's compelling characterisation, magisterial analysis and dry
wit, this outstanding biography of lightly worn authority, wide
research and superb intuition will be read for decades' Simon Sebag
Montefiore, author of STALIN: The Court of the Red Tsar Sunday
