Сталин, Коба и Сосо. Молодой Сталин в исторических источниках
Шрифт:

But it would be wrong to think that the details of Stalin’s life before the Revolution are mostly obscure. On the contrary, there are plenty of sources: memoirs of his enemies and brothers-in arms, the party and police documents. The problem, however, is that few of them are reliable and impartial. Stalin’s biography had immediately become the field of power games and political warfare. It would be a fascinating task for a researcher to try to find out why and how the sources distort the truth.

The book is addressed to a wide audience of readers interested in history.
