Details: In this compelling book, the renowned historian Karl Schl"ogel reconstructs with meticulous care the process through which, month by month, the terrorism of the Soveit regime in the late 1930s spiralled into the 'Great Terror' during which one and a half million human beings lost their lives within a single year. He shows how, in the shadow of the reign of terror, the regime around Stalin also aimed to construct a new society. Based on countless documents, Schl"ogel's historical masterpiece vividly presents an age in which the boundaries separating the dream and the terror dissolve, and enables us to experience the fear that was felt by people subjected to totalitarian rule. This rich and absorbing account of the Soviet purges will be essential reading for all students of Russia and for any readers interested in one of the most dramatic and disturbing events of modern history.
