Inhaltsangabe

There have been many biographies of Stalin, but the court that surrounded him is untravelled ground. Simon Sebag Montefiore, acclaimed biographer of Catherine the Great's lover, prime minister and general Potemkin, 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.
'Spectacular...an impressive and compelling work' Philip Mansel, Spectator
'This magnificent portrait of the dictator' Richard Overy, Literary Review
