This book covers a facinating time in history (the rise of of the Soviet Union in response to the rise of the Nazis) and I learned a lot. It helps to think of this book more as a history text book because it covers a LOT of details (the constant footnotes are a tip-off). I have to admit that it was overly detailed at times and I got bored, but overall the concepts made it a good read. If you like history, you’ll like this book. If not, you might want to skip this one.
