This masterful account of a dictator's death intertwines the personal and the political. By the time of his death in 1953, Joseph Stalin had been the sole ruler of the Soviet Union for over twenty years. During this time, he had carried out the ruthless economic modernization campaign of the early 1930s, initiated the Great Terror of the late 1930s, led the country through a near-cataclysmic beginning and decisive victory in World War II, and transformed it into a superpower. A cult had grown around him, granting him near-divine status; no successor was in sight. His death was bound to be an extremely painful shock—both for the Soviet Union and the world.
