from Simon & Schuster
Price: $17.82

Customer Review:
Nagorski has written a decent general overview of the struggle between Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia, detailing the rise of the respective regimes and their relations up until about 1942. The only problem is, the book is supposed to be specifically about the Battle of Moscow and how it was the most... more info

3.The Whisperers: Private Life in Stalin s RussiaThe Whisperers: Private Life in Stalin's Russia
from Metropolitan Books
Price: $22.75

Customer Review:
Over the years I've read many books about Russian and Soviet history, from Roy Medvedev's "Let History Judge"to Montefiore's "Stalin: Court of the Red Tsar," with significant stops along the way for Solzhenitsyn's magisterial polemic "The Gulag Archipelago." Orlando Fige's "The Whisperers" is one of... more info

4.Stalin: The Court of the Red TsarStalin: The Court of the Red Tsar
from Vintage
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
If possible, read this book before you read Orwell's "1984" or "Animal Farm." This superbly-constructed biography shows you exactly where Orwell's inspiration comes from. What's especially effective about this book is the fact that the jovial, affable Stalin who read for five hours a day exists... more info

Same author as "Court of the Red Czar", found amazing unpublished memoirs in Georgian archives. Insights into the real person and the forces that shaped him. Well written, entertaining and well sources. Also some great photos that I don't think have been published before. I have 7-8 stalin... more info

from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $31.96

Customer Review:
This is an excellent overview of Soviet foreign policy during the Cold War. Judicious and fair, and drawing on much new information from the archives, one gets a sense that this will be the definitive work for some time. The only criticism I have is that I wish the author had dealt with the... more info

7.Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social CatastropheLenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe
from Knopf
Price: $23.10

Customer Review:
As a few others have mentioned there is nothing really 'new' in this book about either the early Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. The author rehashes many arguments that have already been made in a plethora of other literature. I'm somewhat skeptical of the arguments made against Lenin as the source he... more info

8.Engineering Communism: How Two Americans Spied for Stalin and Founded the Soviet Silicon ValleyEngineering Communism: How Two Americans Spied for Stalin and Founded the Soviet Silicon Valley
from Yale University Press
Price: $34.40

Customer Review:
This book may be one of the most important, if under-appreciated, contributions to Cold War literature. It deserves wide readership. The book breaks vital new ground, thanks to Usdin's talents as a reporter, and provides elemental clarity, thanks to his skill as a writer, to the larger drama of... more info

9.Stalin: A BiographyStalin: A Biography
from Belknap Press
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
As I read about the WW II Russian front and Stalin's actions in other books during the past year, I decided that a good biography on Stalin would be a fascinating, interesting, read. After reading that the Washington Post rated Service's book one of the "Best Books of the Year for 2005" and that it... more info

from Vintage Books
Price: $17.16

Customer Review:
This book has become a classic and justifiably so. It succeeds in drawing a chronological, sociological and psychological comparison between the two most inhuman dictators in recent history. Some pictures are as revealing as Bullock's brilliant text: the school class picture showing both Hitler and... more info
