Stalin in Power: The Russian Revolution from Above, 1928–1941 (Tucker's Biography of Stalin) by Robert C. Tucker 902pp First published in 1992 by W. W. Norton & Company, Inc. This book forms the second volume of Tucker's biography of Stalin, the first volume of which is Stalin as Revolutionary. The author shows that Stalin was a Bolshevik of the radical right whose revolution cast the country deep into its imperial, autocratic past. In 1929 Stalin plunged Soviet Russia into a coercive "revolution from above", a decade-long effort to amass military-industrial power for a new war. He forced 25 million peasant families into state-run collectives and transformed the Communist Party into a servile instrument. In 1939, he concluded the pact with Hitler that enabled him to grasp at Eastern Europe while Hitler made war in the West. Tucker brings a fresh analysis to these events and to the Terror of the 1930s, revealing the motives and methods of what he calls the greatest murder mystery of this century. Robert C. Tucker was a professor of politics emeritus at Princeton University and president of the American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077HV9SWW https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B077HV9SWW https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B077HV9SWW |

British publisher of military history (and a smattering of other history) titles, Pen & Sword, currently has a selection of 50 ebooks marked down to only 99p each. I don't know if they sell to those of us in the Colonies but, if they do, our cost would be just short of $1.50 each, plus any conversion charges that our credit cards may levy.
My impression of Pen & Sword's books is that they are of high quality. But, as I implied above, I haven't purchased from them before. My advice is to check ratings that may be available at Amazon U.K., Amazon U.S., Goodreads, _et al._ of the individual books that you might be interested in. See all of the 50 marked-down titles here: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/ebookpromotion. Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 01-25-2018 at 08:22 PM. |

Yeah, I've wondered about that. I've picked up a few, they always seem to be free, so I don't really understand their business model. And the text seems to be more along the lines of a term paper with illustrations.
