Description: America's foremost authority on Russian communism--the author of the definitive studies *The Russian Revolution and Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime*--now addresses the enigmas of that country's 70-year enthrallment with communism. Succinct, lucidly argued, and lively in its detail, this book offers a brilliant summation of the life's work of a master historian.
