Stalin by Adam B Ulam
A biography of Joseph Stalin that explores the secret of his power, the hold his memory has over the imagination, the suffering he inflicted upon his own society, the unprecedented triumphs achieved by the Soviet Union under his leadership, and the mysteries surrounding his death.
Adam Ulam, 1922-2000, was one of the foremost authorities on the Soviet Union. He was Professor Emeritus, Harvard University, former Director of the Russian Research Center and Gurney Professor of History and Political Science.

He also received an honorary doctorate from Brown University in 1983. He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the American Philosophical Society.
