4.0 out of 5 stars Stalin's had paranoia, but he was prudent, March 4, 2010
By 
Dalton C. Rocha (Fortaleza, CE, Brazil.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stalin's Secret War (Paperback)
I read this good book, translated to the portuguese, here in Brazil. This book is divided into two main parts. The first part of it is smaller, with just about 80 pages and goes until about the year 1938; it has four chapters. The second part is bigger, with about 275 pages and thirtheen chapters. There's an epilogue with about fourteen pages. Notes are almost one hundred pages and is bigger, than the first four chapters united.
Some advantages of this book:
1-This book tells that Stalin just followed the Lenin's way.
2-Leon Trotsky is remembered in this book, in about ten times. In all times, Trostky is showed as even worse than Stalin.
3-The author describes the slavery labor, in former Soviet Union. Kolyma gold fields and other slavery camps are described.
4-This book remembers the opposition to Communism and Nationalism in former Soviet Union.
5-This book remembers the slave's revolts in Stalin's times.
6-The so called Betrayal of the Cossacks, also known as the Tragedy of Drau and the Massacre of Cossacks at Lienz, in 1945 by British Army had good space in this good book.
7-Soviet spies in democracies, in 1930 and 1940 decades, are remembered in this good book.
8-The Left's support to Hitler, until the Nazist invasion of former USSR has good space in this book.
9-This book remembers how gays became easily Nazists or Communists.
Some few problems of this book:
1-There's few space to Stalin's administration system. Only the Soviet security system has enough space in this book.
2-This book forgets how Freemasons became mesmerized by Communism, Stalin and Soviet system. The massive support to Soviet Union from freemasons, such as Churchill, is remembered, but the word "Freemasonry" hasn't place in this good book.
3-Stalin's actions in Spain and Latin America haven't enough space in this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars communist savagery, March 7, 2010
This review is from: STALIN'S SECRET WAR (Hardcover)
During a brief period after the fall of the Soviet Union the Communist archives were open to scholars and investigators. The evidence revealed that the Soviet System, Lenin, Stalin and all the other ogres of that monstrous creation were, if anything, even worse than their most vociferous critics had claimed over the years. These vile creatures, Stalin being the worst of them, were responsible for more than forty million deaths up to the time that Stalin died. Tolstoy, who is a descendent of the famous Russian author, was vindicated in all the claims he made in this book. The facts related here are truly blood curdling. It says much about our rulers and the controllers of our media and education that these horrific crimes still remain largely unknown to the great majority of American and British people. Tolstoy also wrote a book called The Secret Betrayal which recounts the disgraceful part played by the Americans, and especially the British, between 1944 and 1947 when millions of anti-communist Russians, Ukranians and other east Europeans and their families were forceably repatriated to certain imprisonment, torture and death at the hands of the Soviet and Yugoslavian butchers. The corrupt British establishment supported the craven traitors named in his book and Tolstoy was destroyed by the courts after he published it.
These books and many others not approved by the system show that history really is an agreed upon set of lies by the victors. Nowhere is this more true than regarding the crimes of communism and unbelievable monsters like Stalin and Lenin.

5.0 out of 5 stars gruesome tales of Stalin's barbarity and paranoia, June 27, 2004
By 
This review is from: Stalin's Secret War (Hardcover)
Author is descended from Leo Tolstoy (of War And Peace fame). Contains shocking accounts of Stalin's brutality and extreme paranoia. Published in 1981 (by Holt, Rinehart, Winston), now out of print. Recently released Soviet archives prove the truth was even more shocking than detailed in this book.
