| Summary: | During a brief period after the fall of the Soviet Union the Communist archives were open to scholars and investigators. The evidence revealed that the Soviet Communism and Stalin were responsible for more than forty million Soviet deaths. This account also contains shocking accounts of Stalin's brutality and his extreme paranoia. As Adam Ulam wrote in Stalin: The Man and His Era: �The madness lay in the system that gave absolute power to one man and allowed him to appease every suspicion and whim with blood.� Stalin's Secret War is a book that reveals a great deal about the nature of one-man government.-- |
