Dmitry Volkogonov was a historian, philosopher, political scientist, and politician. Before you is the main book about Stalin, which has sold millions of copies and has been translated into dozens of languages. It offers an honest and impartial look at the great era of the emergence of socialism, at the phenomenon of the Leader. The author shows how the triumph of one man turned into a tragedy for a great nation. "Stalin did not disappear into the past - he dissolved into the future," said Charles de Gaulle. After Lenin's death, Joseph Vissarionovich ruled the country for about thirty years and made it a powerful superpower. Stalin is perhaps one of the most controversial historical figures who had an unprecedented impact on the fate of our country. Why did he rise to the top of the political Olympus during a crucial time for the USSR? Was he a continuator of "Lenin's cause" or, on the contrary, did he deviate from revolutionary ideals? What did he do for the Great Victory? Does totalitarianism and dictatorship lie in Stalin's character or in the specifics of the historical situation itself? This and much more will be revealed in the book by D.A. Volkogonov.
