US: Orion Publishing Co, 2003. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. There have been many biographies of Stalin, but the court that surrounded him is untravelled ground. Simon Sebag-Montefiore has unearthed the vast underpinning that sustained Stalin. Not only ministers such as Molotov or secret service chiefs such as Beria, but men and women whose loyalty he trusted only until the next purge. Here is the Stalin story from the inside, full of revelations: how the death of Stalin's wife was hushed up - was it suicide?; how the Soviet leaders and their families lived and partied inside the Kremlin walls; what happened on the first day of war with Germany in 1941; the fullest account of the meeting between Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill that settled the fate of the axis powers. And how the Great Terror in which 10 million died actually happened.
