Original writings by Lenin, Tsereteli, and Trotsky enable students to view the causes and conflicts at the root of the revolution, while the insights of contemporary social history add depth to traditional political and personality-based assessments.

(Symbolizing the sickness of the twentieth century to some...)
Symbolizing the sickness of the twentieth century to some, and its salvation to others, Stalin created a era that was one of the most significant periods of modern history. The effects of his long domination in the Soviet Union are so far-reaching that they still cannot be finally assessed. Under Stalin's ruthless hands, a huge, almost helpless Russian nation was swiftly transformed into an industrial and military giant. In less than two decades the Stalinist experiment produced a world power second only to the United States. Stalin and His Times describes briefly the history of the Soviet Union while Stalin struggled for and won power and while he ruled. It attempts to explain why the history evolved as it did, why Stalin succeeded in achieving many of his objectives, and in what ways he failed. It also seeks to assess the significance of Stalin's era (1923-1953) for the Soviet Union and for the outside world.
