Description
Simon Sebag Montefiore's biography radically alters our understanding of Joseph Stalin, from charismatic cobbler's son to student priest, romantic poet, prolific lover and murderous revolutionary. This is the story of how Stalin became Stalin.
Culminating in the 1917 revolution, Montefiore's research reveals a complex figure driven by both idealism and brutality. A revelatory look at Stalin's life challenges our perceptions of this pivotal historical figure.
